I'm sorry to wave goodbye to a community of over 1500 members, and two decades worth of facilitating practice-based events, and teaching #ExtremeProgramming and #SoftwareCraft skills to programmers.

The group was immensely successful, and enjoyed a 4.9 rating. If you've run a meetup, you know what that means.

Adios muchachos.

Tbh, I mostly care about the general quality of software development because I might be the one who has to maintain and fix your mistakes.
