Program

Please write to the group with your ideas of things to do in Porto! Everything we do should advance the completion of either this Work or "the next one":

  • PO's report

  • Rainstorm

    • Opening Games (every day)

    • Nap time (every day)

  • Traditional Introductory Writers' Workshop

  • Brainstorm titles for the book (I plan to put up a walk-by board where we can add ideas during the week)

  • Literate Writing Workshop — led by Richard Gabriel

    • Goal: Gain insight into the place of beauty in the language of our sequences and patterns

    • Workshop on sequences and pattern languages — led by Cope, Dick and Neil

      • Goal: Learn more about PLs in depth and use that knowledge to refine our own languages. The Scaling topic will also come up here

    • Writers' ScrumBlitzes

      • This year's alternatives to the standard Writers' Workshop format — at author discretion

    • Frame out the book outline

    • Working group for The Next Generation Scrum PLoP

    • Group outing (Ademar will soon let us know about the options — lots of nice alternatives)
