BookOfTheMonth BookOfTheMonth| - Last edited February 2, 2003 |
Each month we choose a book. Ideally with some relationship to XP. Obscure gems, tricky tomes and new ideas are preferred over the usual suspects like the GoF book. People are encouraged to read and/or bring in for discussion a particular book during that month. At the end of each month we've had roughly 4 weeks of discussion both in person and on the wiki about a particular book. Hopefully at the last XtC of each month we can come to some conclusions and then pick the next month's book.
I've put up a sample list of books with suggested months and people can append books to each month or restructure the list appropriately.

MarchSomeAnonymousPerson keeps writing about XtC having a BookOfTheMonth but then not explaining how this BookOfTheMonth thing is going to work. Eg, how it gets picked, what we do when we have picked it. I guess read and discuss BookOfTheMonth at XtC, as there doesn't seem to be any point in making another page of favourite book titles (we already have this at BooKs). So I was trying to find out who SomeAnonymousPerson is or who else is interested in BookOfTheMonth as more titles appear here so we can actually discuss how it works. --RachelD
Maybe those at 1st XtC meeting of the month could choose/vote on a title and add to wiki the next day to discuss at last XtC of the month? --RachelD
