Last month we had a great meeting with Eric Peyton discussing
Rendezvous and Jon Rentzsch discussing Project WONDER. This month we
have another good meeting planned. Also, for building security
purposes, please RSVP if you are going to attend (or are even
considering attending, I'll just add your name to the list).
1) Jonathan Rentzsch of Red Shed Software on DirectToWeb
"What WebObjects is to the rest of app server market, DirectToWeb is
to WebObjects -- Jim Roepcke" DirectToWeb is a superset of the
WebObjects Framework that dramatically cuts down on the amount of time
it takes to build a fully functional web application which interacts
with a database. Jon will show you how DirectToWeb blends your database
model file with rules you define and your custom components to
dynamically generate web applications with minimal code.
2) Chris Hanson of bDistributed.com on the BDRuleEngine framework
Chris Hanson of bDistributed.com will be talking about his company's
Open Source BDRuleEngine framework, which adds a rule engine to Cocoa.
Chris will give an overview of the principal classes in BDRuleEngine
and show how to build a simple Cocoa application that derives its
behavior from rules. Chris will also discuss the key differences
between BDRuleEngine and the rule engine in DirectToWeb. The
BDRuleEngine framework and the BDControl framework on which it depends
can both be downloaded from <
http://www.bdistributed.com/Projects/>.
They are both Open Source, under a BSD-style license.
We will, as usual, also have Q & A and pizza, a discussion of future
meeting topics and dates. Thanks to Kiwi Internet Group for the pizza.
Also, thanks to Alex Johnson, the CAWG calendar is available as an
iCal:

webcal://ical.mac.com/alex27/CAWUG.ics (subscribe to in iCal)
Lastly, if you are working on a project and would like to talk about it
briefly / promote it, I think it would be fun for people to hear about
other people's projects. Please email me off line you can talk at this
meeting or a future meeting.
-Bob
