Getting Ready for JavaOne

The days leading up to JavaOne are getting more interesting. People have been working hard to get everything ready for the show. Sun Studio will have a booth at the show, and we went through the Sun Studio demos today. We have some demos that show Java and C++ code, which could be interesting to people doing mixed-language development. Sun Studio hasn't had much of a presence at JavaOne before, so if you get a chance, stop by the Sun Studio booth and check it out.

Patrick Keegan is in town from Prague, and he has started blogging about his JavaOne experiences and his work on the NetBeans IDE Field Guide.We found out today there will be a book signing at the reception that follows NetBeans Day on Sunday, June 26. It's also nice to see some of the other people that are in town from Prague and to put some faces with the voices I've heard during our phone meetings.

We had an OpenSolaris docs meeting today where we talked about the different docs being referred to in the OpenSolaris communities. Sue Weber started her blog today, so she'll start to some good Solaris and OpenSolaris information for you in the coming days.

Just a reminder that the 3rd OpenSolaris User Group Meeting is next Tuesday, June 28, in Santa Clara. For more information, please see Alan DuBoff's June 22 blog entry.I'll be at JavaOne next week, so I won't be able to attend the user group meeting, but I will plan on attending future user group meetings.
