Register Now for JavaOne Blogger Beer

I'm making progress to get the JavaOne Blogger Meetup scheduled. I'm still negotiating with venues so I'd appreciate if everyone interested could go use the shiny new registration system to express an interest. That way I'll be able to e-mail everyone who wants to come as well as guestimate the number of people coming - register now! (you only have to fill in name & e-mail)

The system is interesting too. Bruno Souza has very kindly set up this instance of it for me. It's the event management system that SouJava is creating to support all the many conferences, user meetings and BoFs they are running down in Brazil. It did great service at Tech Days and is now helping out at JavaOne. I gather it's a 100% Java solution and that they will be rolling it out for wider use soon. The name does need careful capitalisation though!

Update:Venue confirmed!

It doesn't like my email address.

Ed: I'll ask Bruno to look into it.

I signed up, but whether I can come depends a lot on the exact date and time that is chosen... So hopefully you'll interpret the "registration" numbers with that in mind.

Ed: email problem fixed. Tks for the bug report ;-)

Works now, thanks. Ya know, I hate these anti-spam math questions because I get them wrong half the time. :)

Signed up :) Funny that there is no website field in the registration form so we could post our blog URL :) /thomas

[Trackback] Are you going to JavaOne in San Francisco this year? I’m attending with 6 of my coworkers flying over on Saturday. I just wanted to let you know about a blogger meetup arranged by SunMink (beer included!). See his post for more details and sign u...

I'm glad to see OpenOffice.org is participating. You know we are a bit picky about the name. Would you mind to add the .org?
