Hello and Welcome to Detroit Craftsman Guild! In our first meeting we will be doing a little first-time house cleaning: stating our mission, going over logistics, and opening the floor to a few questions about the user group going forward. In addition we will have TWO speakers:



*****************



Amber Conville, Developer at Detroit Labs, Co-Founder of the Ann Arbor Craftsman Guild (http://craftsmanguild.org/) and organizer of almost anything in the Detroit area that has the word 'software' attached to it. Amber will talk about SOLID principals and probably some of her experiences in starting the original Craftsman Guild.



*****************



Mike Evans, Developer at Loveland Technologies - Mike was one of the lucky sons of guns who went to Google I/O and saw a presentation on Polymer (http://www.polymer-project.org/). He thought it was awesome and is going to come tell us all about it.
