Hi,

My apologies if you receive this message more than once -- I wasn't
sure which e-mail address to use.

I'd like to invite your Java User Group (JUG) to participate in a
competition my company is hosting, called the Hydra Versus Dragon
Coding Competition (http://www.n-brain.net/hydra-versus-dragon.htm).

This competition is for Java software developers only, and pits teams
of developers against each other in a friendly competition to win more
than $8000 in prizes (like a Mac Book Pro, an iPhone, and a vacation
to Boulder, Colorado, USA). All members of the winning team receive
the full stack of prizes, and everyone else receives free software
valued at $1800.

I encourage your entire Java User Group to work together on a single
solution for the Qualification Challenge (in which case, everyone
would be qualified to participate in the competition). It's a fun way
to develop team skills and improve everyone's mastery of low-level
Java systems programming.

Should any of your members end up competing, I'd be happy to donate
free licenses to our product (UNA - One Shot License) to everyone in
your JUG.

If you have any questions, write me at jo...@n-brain.net. And if you
don't think your JUG members would be interested in this competition,
then please just disregard this message.

Welcome to your JUG!

There are more than one way to participate:

* Be active on the mailing list
* Come to the UG meets (You know about the July meet?)
* If you are keen on delivering a session, please come forward
* If you are interested in organizing a meet at your
company/institution, let us know
* If you can sponsor t-shirts/mugs/pizzas- you ARE welcome
* Pass a word..

Welcome, once again.

Have Fun.
