GUM April 10th

[Mike Hugo]

I think I was pencilled in to talk at GUM on April 10th but due to a all-Entagen company gathering scheduled for that night I have to cancel.  I'm happy to talk on May 8th if that date is still open.  The talk will be a preview of a session I'm giving at GR8 - 

Implementing a build process that checks out the latest code, compiles, and runs tests is a great start into Continuous Integration - but it's only the tip of the iceberg. We'll discuss and show how we build software at Entagen with a workflow inspired by GitFlow. All development is done on feature branches, code reviews and testing are done as part of pull requests, and the master branch is always deployable to production. With only a little bit of effort and a few groovy scripts, we implemented automated builds and a fully deployed test environment for each branch to facilitate testing and validation. 

It's wicked awesome stuff (not that I'm biased or anything), I think you'll enjoy.  We have plans to open source the "Jenkins Build Per Branch" groovy scripts we're using, I'm hoping that by May 8th that stuff will be available for others to use as well.

Sorry to cancel on April 10th, but I'm looking forward to getting to GUM soon!

Mike's talk has been moved to May 8th. I've asked around but thus far
I have been unable to find a replacement speaker. I know it's short
notice but if you have an ideas let us know and feel free to post them
here.

I've wanted to propose a talk around Jesque
(https://github.com/michaelcameron/grails-jesque), a Java/Groovy
version of Resque (https://github.com/defunkt/resque). It's a redis
backed for background jobs with simple queueing, and in the grails
plugin, job scheduling as well. I should be able to create something
in time for next Tuesday.

I can present how we can use grails with different portal. Consuming a
web services from grails in a web portal. In my case I use LifeRay
portal.
- I will walk through how to create widget using the opensocial standard
- create a web service from grails
- and using the widget display information by querying a National
health Library database and getting information
if time permit, I can show how to create a multi page form with
webflow in grails

I know it is basic topics but it will be a good presentation.

Thanks,
Samson

I'm happy two people responded because now I have to travel to Boston the week of May 7th for business.  Mike, thanks for stepping up for April (though I'm really bummed I'm going to miss that presentation).  And Samson, perhaps you could present May 8th? (also bummed I'll miss that one)

If no one is slated for June, perhaps I can present then?

I would be happy to assist Michael if he needs some time filled in
talking about my usage of Jedis, cxf-client and executor in creating
of the GPerf framework (https://github.com/ctoestreich/gperf)

Michael,

Thanks for stepping up, it sounds like a interesting topic. Feel free
to take Christian up on his offer if you feel like it will help round
out the presentation.

Cheers,
