For the meeting on the 15th January 2019, we are pleased to have
Benjamin Trenkle - https://www.wicked-software.de giving a talk via a video link.
Benjamin is very active in the development of Joomla 4 and in particular the WorkFlow functionality. He is also a lead in the Pizza Bugs and Fun group in Germany and will be talking on that subject as well as any we can coerce him into chatting about.
The title of his talk is "What does it take to hold a Pizza Bugs & Fun (PBF) Session?"
In the talk, we are hoping to learn the skills to partake in a Pizza Bugs and Fun event. With Joomla 4 nudging closer it is important to help the developers in any way we can and this is a great opportunity to give back to the community we all benefit from.
It's certainly not just for coders, there are many ways to get involved and Benjamin will be giving his take on the subject.
The website he has built to accompany PBF can be found here https://pizza-bugs-fun.com/en
The schedule will be as follows.
Pre Meeting
Pre 6 pm - Coffee shop.
6 pm - Developers meeting. Introductions.
6:10 pm - Setting topic from the group. (It can be code based, a problem which a developer has and needs advice for or discussion on Joomla 4 development)
