[Clev-jug] May Meeting Canceled -- Next Meeting June 14

[Maciej Zawadzki]

Hello Everyone,

I'm sorry but I have to cancel this month's JUG meeting.  Unfortunately,
we were unable to get a speaker for this month.  We do have a speaker
for June and we have some people lined up to speak in later months as
well.

So the next meeting will be June 14th, and the speaker will be Job Kern
-- more info below.

See you all in June,

--Maciej



Abstract:

The author of "The Agile Manifesto," Jon Kern, will describe a pragmatic
usage of Agile Development and Java MDA that has high value when
combined with visual tool support.  He will discuss where UML and MDA
overlap, and will dismiss the "Silver Bullet" theory that often
accompanies design and development tools.  He'll discuss how to take all
of this and combine it into a successful project.
