[ajug-members] Martin Fowler speaks in Atlanta on April 28th and 29th

[Handly Cameron]

This event is hosted by Agile Atlanta and the Agile Turner group.  Martin
Fowler, author of many core Agile books such as Refactoring, Planning XP,
and Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture, will be speaking on
Software Development in the 21st Century, What Agile really means to the
future of software development.

Martin is a great speaker and you don't want to miss this event.  When
Martin spoke to Agile Atlanta in 2002, it was the first time I heard the
term POJO and his ideas made a great improvement to the way I approached
software development.

We all owe a big thanks to the Agile Turner group for helping us use their
large auditorium.  For Martin Fowler's last event with us, we had over 220
people attend.  Please register at
http://connect.thoughtworks.com/ATLTWMFTechnologyForum so that we can be
prepared.

Thank you,

Handly Cameron
President, Agile Atlanta
