Second Call for Topics for June and July

[Mykel Alvis]

Jim, et al, have generated a pretty good list.  Now I need people to step up and agree to make the talk.

I have an OSGi talk I'm working on that will probably take 30-40 minutes.  I'd really love not to have to hear my own voice at the June meeting, so I need volunteers to take subjects off the Wanted list.

Any takers can reply here or email me personally.

6.       JSF2

7.       Hudson

8.       JMX

9.       Spring 3 features

10.   Nexus

11.   An overview of the popular Linux distros and the main differences  (Mykel, you could do this in your sleep)

 

Instead of a 1-2 hour presentation with demos, some of us might be more agreeable to a 30 min overview of a topic and maybe 2-3 of us present in a given meeting.

Such shorter presentations would be a lot easier to prepare with our busy schedules.

 

Did I mention Hudson ?

I *strongly* support the idea of more and shorter (15- 30 minute) presentations.

I'll add the talk that I'm currently working on to it:

12: OSGi

and stuff I might want to see covered:

13. Appserver comparisons
14. Esper
15. Scala
16. Clojure

-Android Development Topics
-OSGi
-JRuby Intro
-Scala deep-dive topics: Generics, sbt, Akka
