[OKC JUG] Dojo sometime soon?

[Brett L. Schuchert]

Derrick, et. al.,

I'd be happy to start something. I would love a regular, multi- 
language dojo.

I see three options for location:
	Valtech - they have offered their space before (Kenyatta? Mark Smith?)
	CoCo - this is separate from the OkC JUG as far as I can see, so $$  
for the space?
	Public Libraries - depends on # people, but this has been a good  
option in the past

I'd say some evening, from 5:30 PM to 9:00, people can come and go as  
they see fit.

I propose next week. Are any nights out of the question other than  
Friday?

Initial languages:
	Java
	C#
	Ruby
	C++
	Java Script

(I suggest we work on the same problem across the languages.)

Any takers on that? I can propose a problem (or a few).

We can:
	Start from scratch
	Begin somewhere "in the middle"
	Use TDD (my preference)
	Use BDD (or this would be cool as well)
	Or not (I'm willing but much less interested)

Here is one proposal from the above:
	Monday, 5:30 - 9:00
		5:30 - 6:00 meet and greet, set ground rules
		6:00 - 8:30 dojo, one pair working, all else observing and  
commenting, pairs changing every 3 minutes
		8:30 - 9:00 fish bowl
	Location: Downtown Public Library
	Java
	Starting from scratch on a problem I'll bring
		It will involve basic TDD as well as design patterns
	Using TDD
