well, my friends... i'm afraid that yours truly won't be able to take the Coding Challenge at JavaOne afterall...

it's not because i haven't the faintest clue about how to code Java.

it isn't even because i'm probably the world's worst problem solver when it comes to anything technical.

nope. nothing to do with talent (or lack thereof)

it's my employer. Sun employees aren't eligible to particpate in the contest.

and we can thank Danny Malks (and i think i'll do that in person at his BOF ) for shattering my world today.

guess i can kiss goodbye the t-shirt and messenger bag they're giving away to the first 1,000 people who enter.

:-(

double :-(

I think you should still try to get the tshirt and bag. You are one biggest Java celeb there is. Gosling, Duke, Mary. :) dl
