This piece of technology is really promising although it wasn't easy to get everything right. I've started playing with it yesterday afternoon. I've installed the software multiple times on my notebook, but all I got was a couple of NullPointerExceptions in Mozilla. I downloaded a packaged "canned" demo cd in the evening, took it home but the NullPointerExceptions just kept coming. I gave up at 11pm and decided to get up early in the morning and reinstall JDS before the aforementioned partner event (I've left the install CDs in the office). That was when I've found out about blogs.sun.com and spent half the night creating this simple template and the photo montage in the title bar. So, I went to sleep at 3am, got up at 6, arrived in the office at 7, reinstalled JDS by 8, installed APOC by 8:30 and arrived before the start of event at 9. Luckily it was held in the castle district: Hotel Hilton which is not far from the Sun office (although it's on top of a hill: probably most of you who had the pleasure to visit Budapest and Hungary should remember the place and the stairs quite well).

Of course the NullPointerExceptions were coming because previously I had JDS Quicksilver build 05 installed and later upgraded my installation to the last FCS build. The upgrade must have kept the Configuration Management facility broken. That's the price I pay for running Sun on Sun beta:)

I feel I'm going to fall asleep soon...
