Agile Belgium Drinkup March 2012

Hi everyone,

As usual, it’s time to gather again for our traditional monthly Agile Belgium Drinkup.

This one will take place at “La Becasse” behind the Bourse/Beurs (rue de Tabora 11, 1000 Bruxelles)

Some suggested that it would be nice to have a place where we could play games or even do a small presentation, and “La Becasse” has a room we can use upstairs for that.

Talking about games, we had a discussion about games that could help teams understand the importance of tests or how taking shortcuts can be a bad idea. I’ll bring a copy of “Hard Choices” with me so we can try it out. If you have other games in mind, please tell us!

We will start at 7:30 pm, a bit later, because that’s when people usually arrive.

As usual, you can register here:

Hope to see some of you there,

Marc

Hi Everyone,

As usual, it’s time for our next Drinkup. It will take place on February 15th at 7 p.m. This time I’ll make sure I’m working from Brussels so I don’t get there late… Sorry again for those who had to wait last time.

It will still take place at the Estaminet du Kelderke on the Grand Place itself number 15.

Here’s a link to the website of the place.

If you want to join, please register here so we can book a suitable table.

See you there,
