We'll have a special OrlandoJUG this month - it's a lightning talk session, featuring all members. This is your chance to talk about what's new, what you're working on or anything that's important to you.
This will be a pot luck dinner. Please bring an appetizer if you can. If you can't, no worries! There is always enough for everyone. Drinks are welcome, too.
Agenda: We'll collect short abstracts first, at the start of the meeting. Then, the group will order the abstracts. We'll use a timer and limit the talks to 5 minutes. Once done, we can continue the talks over tasty beverages. A good time!
Please feel free to use Codetown's "invite" feature to tell your friends and colleagues about this event. And, bring a friend!
Please RSVP!
