Hi all,
  A modest proposal: a study group for programmers, based in Tagbilaran.  Our focus would be on Design Patterns.  These are the refined models - building blocks - of programming, often reused. 
  As wikipedia summarises: "In software engineering, a design pattern is a general repeatable solution to a commonly occurring problem in software design. A design pattern is not a finished design that can be transformed directly into code. It is a description or template for how to solve a problem that can be used in many different situations."
  Read more about them here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_pattern_(computer_science)

  Why do programmers need such a group to discuss this topic in particular?  Because they're sometimes tricky to understand and difficult to remember if you just read about them.  Many times I've read about Patterns - only to later forget all but the basics.  Hopefully we can discuss examples and gain insights from each other.

  The benefits: with a deep understand of this stuff you can write  8) code!

  I hope there is some interest from people working in software development, students and academics.  If you are interested post below and we'll organise it!
Cheers,
Ben

It's not an original idea, see http://www.industriallogic.com/patterns/index.html - an overview of such a study group based in New York.

I guess we'll wait and see about this.  Need a critical mass of people - say 5 or so to make it happen.

sure, it's ideal for college students - but we also need experienced people so that they can relate their real-world examples.
