Welcome to the Boston Cocoon & Lenya User Group
Events
We now have our very own Apache Cocoon meetup group. Check our meetup page for details about upcoming events.
We invite anyone interested in Apache-based development, content management, or application architecture to join us for an evening of informal discussion of Apache Cocoon technology and developer experiences. Our next meeting of the will be held on 11 May 2005 at:
Fire + Ice
50 Church St, Cambridge, MA
617-547-9007
6:00 pm - whenever
A link to an online map is provided below.
This meeting will be both a social event and to plan for the upcoming "progressive lab" series of meetings. Fire and Ice is a fun Harvard Square eatery where you can assemble the ingredients for your entree, and watch it being prepared in the restaurants open kitchen.
Subsequently, our group will conduct a series of meetings that will focus on application development using Apache Cocoon. During each meeting, the group will design, build, and test a simple web-based application using Apache Cocoon and other tools. We will be looking for ideas, suggestions and volunteers to get the progressive lab started!
We will need to make a firm reservation by 10 May, so please RSVP to: brad.kain@quoininc.com
We hope to see you there!
