Codetown ::: a software developer's community
Hello, GatorJUG!
I hope all of you had a great holiday and new year season.
I'm planning our meeting for next Wednesday right now, so stay tuned for that! Second Wed - that's the thing to remember when you think of GatorJUG. Please spread the word so we have the best year ever. The more people come, the better our flow of information is. And, if you want to volunteer, just let me or Dan know and we'll get you or a friend going with a project you'll enjoy.
We have so much to look forward to this year. Lots to report. Sarasota JUG (AKA SunJUG) is now known as Sarasota Software Engineers. Here's the announcement:
Hi All,
Towards the end of 2014 a growing interest in software topics extending outside the realm of Java was expressed. To better facilitate this, as of January 2015, the SunJUG group is now known as the "Sarasota Software Engineers User Group" and we will focus on a variety of topics related to software engineering, not just Java.
The meetup site has a new URL (http://www.meetup.com/SarasotaSoftwareEngineers) and the older SunJUG one (http://www.meetup.com/SunJUG) should re-direct for legacy purposes.
The mailing list email has changed to SarasotaSoftwareEngineers-list@meetup.com. The twitter username has been changed to srqsoftwareeng - please follow if you utilize twitter!
As always, please let me know if you have something you would like to present and looking forward to another great year!

Until then,

Here's the official announcement for tomorrow night's meeting: http://www.codetown.us/events/gatorjug-10
Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

By Jenna ZeigenWhen Microsoft Engineer Andres Freund noticed SSH was taking longer than usual he discovered a backdoor in xz utils, one of the underlying libraries for systemd, that had taken years to be put in place. The backdoor had found its way into testing releases of Linux distributions like Debian Sid, Fedora 41 and Fedora Rawhide but was caught before propagating into more highly used stable releases.
By Chris SwanBehind every InfoQ Dev Summit and QCon software development conference is a collective of distinguished senior software practitioners who carefully curate the topics based on the crucial trends and essential best practices you need to know about. These architects and leaders are charged with creating THE conference they would want to attend.
By Artenisa ChatziouTechnological improvements like containers, VMs, infrastructure-as-code, software-defined-networking, collaborative version control, and CI/CD can make it possible to fix cultural issues around organisational dynamics and bad product delivery. According to Nigel Kersten, software leaders should leverage tech to create positive changes in organisational dynamics and relationships between teams.
