For me, the main attraction of JavaOne is the opportunity to connect email addresses to faces - ie. it’s a great social and netorking opportunity - nearly everyone in Java-land (and beyond) will be there. This year, it looks like JBoss will have a pretty decent attendance. As well as the usual developer, enterprise Java, SOA tooling and run-times we’ll be showing off JON 2.0 (as mentioned previously) - if you spend any time managing large, complex JBoss clouds - you should swing by the JBoss pod (#734) and take a look.
On the developer tooling side - go listen to Burr Sutter and Max Katz (Exadel) talking about tools (TS-7479) - I hear it’s sold out but another session has been scheduled. Then swing by the JBoss pod (#734) to see a demo of JBDS and see what we’re giving out for free
For detais of other talks and BOFs from Gavin King, Emmanuel Bernard, Mark Little and registration details for the JBoss party - go here.
See you next week !
