Hi Folks!

We feel great to have Tanay from Terracotta, Inc. speaking to us tomorrow!
If you are a Java guy in Bangalore, do not miss this.

PS: We are working out on a solution to stream the meet via Giss.tv accessible here at http://giss.tv/interface/?mp=bojug.ogg

If we get it working, it will be a last minute announcement this time, but from next time on it will be a regular feature. Any other free Audio/Video conferencing system you know of and would recommend? I was checking out DimDim, but could not find a way out to use the Audio/Video. Any ideas?

Tomorrow is our next BOJUG Meet.
