I'm pleased to say that Reading Geek Night 2 is coming together very nicely. We're going to kick off (trains from London willing) with a talk from Luke Smith about "SOLID". At future events Luke promises to speak about some of his open source projects, but next week he's going to attempt to get across the 5 principles of SOLID in 20 minutes.

Luke says...

SOLID is a set of principles to guide you in managing the dependencies within your applications. This talk will give a brief introduction to the SOLID principles and how by keeping them in mind when writing OO code, you can make your application more maintainable and flexible.

Hope you agree that its a great subject to kick off Reading Geek Night 2. Starting out with a talk which includes the  "Liskov Substitution Principle" has to be a winner!! (Disclosure.... I had to look that up on Wikipedia)
