Coding Dojo Update

This is a follow-up to http://blogs.valtech.com/ino/2009/07/29/intrested-in-a-coding-dojo-in-the-rhineland/

A few people, both from within Valtech and from the world aorund us, have expressed intrest to go-ahead with the Dojo.

The current concern is due to the fact that we don’t have anyone around who has been to one of the few other dojos we might not be able to ‘caputure the spritit’. What we have planned to do is
* get in touch with the Paris Dojo and have a quick conference call (through Skype or iChat) to get an idea how ‘a proper dojo should feel like’ – these type of things that aere difficult to grasp when written down. Maybe hear some anecdotes That should be fairly straightforward as I am already in touch with some of the Paris Dojo regulars – which are also Valtech by coincidence.
(mail me if you want to join in on that)

* Have a short (90min) Dojo experiment at our next Jour Fixe, which is going down next week.

Afterwards, we should be as ready as we possibly could be to schedule a first regular dojo, presumably in January as people are going into christmas holidays.

I will post updates here.
