Hi all!

We have a great topic and speaker this month! Ole Lensmar, CTO and co-founder from SmartBear will join us totalk about Swagger. SmartBear recently assumed ownership of Swagger, and Ole will give us his view of Swagger's present and future evolution, the role of Swagger in theAPI lifecycle, and other timely topics.

Swagger is a simple yet powerful representation of your RESTful API. With the largest ecosystem of API tooling on the planet, thousands of developers are supporting Swagger in almost every modern programming language and deployment environment. With a Swagger-enabled API, you get interactive documentation, client SDK generation and discoverability.

"We created Swagger to help fulfill the promise of APIs. Swagger helps companies like Apigee, Getty Images, Intuit, LivingSocial, McKesson, Microsoft, Morningstar, and PayPal build the best possible services with RESTful APIs."
