Awesome talk! Programming in a group this way was helpful it a couple ways. It gave me validation for some of my good coding practices - either I saw others recommend the same thing, or I got to explain why something should be done in a particular way. The group helped me learn new good-coding-practices. It was easy to ask "why did you do it that way" and have people explain the subtle intricacies. Having an instructor summarize some key points at the end was a great way to bring it all together.
I had so much fun! This was a great way to start a discussion about what are good practices for validation and what security things to keep in mind when dealing with input. It was neat to hear the suggestions for where to start and how many different ideas there are about what is good validation and a lot of good questions about what each built-in validation covers. Aaron did a great job of keeping the time light and keeping the project moving forward. My one suggestion would be for Aaron to speak a little more slowly at the beginning of the talk, but once he found his groove, it was not a problem to understand him at all.
