RE: design by contract

["Fuqua, Andrew (ISSAtlanta)" <AFuqua@iss.net>]

Hi Gregory. 

I'd like to have a session on DBC at a future XP-atlanta or AJUG meeting so I'm trying to identify knowledgeable people who can talk about it. I think both groups would enjoy an intro or intermediary presentation on DBC in general. If I can find someone who knows about DBC in Java, then AJUG may be the more appropriate venue. If I can find someone who has done DBC in something other than Java or who has done some refactoring and unit testing with DBC, then xp-atlanta may be the more appropriate venue. And in either case, a case study or experience report would tie it all together with examples. 

If we can find 2 or 3 people, then we could even have a panel.

Thanks for responding. In what way would you be able to contribute? (We can take this off-line if you wish.)

Hi Andrew, I've done a lot of Design by contract. Its a very useful way 
of designing systems (generally when there is little tight/formal 
communication). What aspect of the design method are you seeking to 
gain more information on? Are you looking for something more along the 
lines of a case study or are you just looking for kind of a 'how too' 
type of thing?
