Greetings, GatorJUG!
This month we'll talk about OSCON 2012. I ran into Clint Collins of GatorLUG there. Clint and I had the fortune to have lunch with Ward Cunningham, creator of the wiki wiki website, eXtreme Programming and Design Patterns co-author. Loads of new topics were explored and I hope to convey many to you.
This meeting is sponsored by Cambridge Web Design (CWD) ::: Working Software Developers!
Please invite some friends and RSVP here so we'll know how much pizza to order. Note: you must join Codetown to enable the RSVP - otherwise you won't see it!

Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

By Stefania Chaplin, Azhir MahmoodSoftware development is much different today than it was at the beginning of the Space Shuttle era because of the tools that we have. But the art and practice of software engineering has not progressed that much since the early days of software development. Compilers are much better and faster, and debuggers are now integrated into development tools, making the task of error detection easier.
By Ben LindersIn an engaging talk at QCon London 2025, Louis Ryan, CTO of Solo.io and co-creator of Istio, addressed the complexities of hybrid cloud-native networking. He emphasized intentional assembly of network components, critical evaluation of tools, and treating networking as a primary focus to ensure reliability, observability, and security in today's intricate enterprise environments.
