If anyone will be in or around Atlanta, GA, October 24 - 26, you should
think about attending the Atlanta
Java Software Symposium which is part of the No Fluff, Just
Stuff symposium series. I'll be presenting a session entitled
"Scripting on the JVM" in which I will present various scripting languages
like Python and Ruby running on top of the Java virtual machine and
trying to explain
why that's cool. The session abstract is located on the
sessions listing page; I'm about 1/3 of the way down the page.
I attended this symposium last year and had an
excellent experience. The ratio of useful information to
vendor-specific sales-weasel crap was extremely high, which is a
good thing. I wrote about it in the February Java Developer's Journal if
you want to read about it. There is also a review of one of the other
symposia in the series in the current issue.
I'm really looking forward to presenting at it this year's symposium.
