1) I/OKit by Chuck Remes
Chuck has worked on an ethernet driver for the DEC Tulip chip set and
will discuss I/OKit. I/OKit provides all the basic services to develop
a hardware or software driver for darwin (or OS X). It is a powerful
toolkit that let's the programmer bring all the power of OOP to the
world of drivers, allowing such things as subclassing, method overload,
and driver stacking. This presentation will provide a high-level 45
minute overview of some of its basic features and principles.
2) xCode & new Cocoa features in Panther by Chris Hansen
Chris Hanson of bDistributed.com will go over some of the additions to
Cocoa included in Panther, as well as the new Xcode IDE and the updated
Interface Builder.
We will, as usual, also have Q & A, a discussion of future meeting
topics and dates. We are very thankful to Kiwi Internet Group for the
list-serve, and other resources they have provided to support this
group.
We also wish to thank the folks who run the theater space at the Apple
store for letting us have our meetings there. Since there are no
eating facilities at the store, we will not bring in food. However,
given the store's good location, it should be easy to continue the
discussion at a local eatery or pub like Timothy O'Toole's at 622
Fairbanks (2 blocks east of the store) which worked out very well last
month.

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 and you can talk at
a future meeting.
Future meetings dates: December 2nd, January 6th, February 3rd, March
2nd. Starting in December we are going to move back to the First
Tuesday of the month.
Future meeting topics. We are looking for volunteers to present on
various topics. Here is a list of topics that were suggested after the
last meeting.
We currently have no one signed up for any of these topics, so get one
while you can :-): Detailed Introduction to WO & tools; EOF in depth;
WebServices (WebObjects Server / various clients); WebObjects Direct To
Web; WebObjects Java Client; Detailed introduction to ObjC & building a
Cocoa App/ Introduction to Foundation & AppKit (possibly 2 meetings);
wrapping Unix command line commands in a GUI app. If you have any
suggestion or requests, please feel free to bring them with you to the
next meeting.
-Bob
