This is a message I sent to the members of AgileRTP, our local Agile user's group. But I wanted to share it with a wider audience, so I'm reposting it here.

This is a quick reminder about the meeting tonight. Dr. Laurie Williams is teaching us about planning poker, and how to use it to effectively to manage security risks. It should be a very informative and educational meeting.

If you're not familiar with planning poker, you can learn more about it at http://planningpoker.com/.

Also, members Ben Carey and Rick DeNatale noticed the relative size of AgileRTP. We're the 5th biggest Agile meetup (on Meetup.com) in the world!! http://agile.meetup.com/ And we're #3 in the USA!! As of the new members who joined this morning (welcome Justin and Harold!), we're at 374 members. I wonder when we'll hit 500? :)

The growth of our group has been organic... completely word of mouth... so we thank you for helping us to grow (and continue to grow!) Agile RTP!

Also, let's thank Allscripts for continuing to host our meetings. It makes my 'job' much easier.

So please invite a friend... tell a co-worker... forward this email to your team's development list... twitter and blog! Help us the message of sustainable, repeatable, solid software development!
