Our meeting will be a joint West Michigan IEEE and WMCN event. The featured speaker will be Dr. Carl Erickson, President of Atomic Object, and former associate professor of Computer Science at Grand Valley State University. The lecture will be on Extreme Programming (XP) and how XP helps cut time to market and improves product quality.

If you are interested in XP and/or technical consulting in West Michigan, please join us. Because Smiths Aerospace is a defense contractor please RSVP us even if you are not sure that you will be attending. As long as you are on the list then you will be able to attend. Please send RSVPs to "greg.griffes@smiths-aerospace.com". Please let us know if you are a US citizen, or include your country of origin in your RSVP.

Those of us who want to talk WMCN business will have time to talk after the presentation. However, if you have the time, the diner portion of our meeting really is a great time and we tend to get a lot of networking done.
