So tonight I finally received the PayPal info to get registration set up for AJUG’s Open Space event “The Practice of Java in Atlanta“. I am looking forward to facilitating this event; the rich pool of Java talent in Atlanta should make for a passionate, dynamic group to hold conversations about Java and where it’s going. If you’re going to be in town, I can assure you that the $75 (US) will be worthwhile.

So, for the latter half of this week I have been at CodeMash in Sandusky, Ohio. It has been one of the best conferences with traditional-style presentations that I have attended for some time. We have had some remarkable Open Space sessions interspersed throughout the regular agenda. I think most of us are saving up our posts for afterward; it’s been a pretty non-stop pace. The last group I was talking with yesterday wrapped up after 1:00 AM, if that gives you any idea. This has had that same cross-platform, cross-disciplinary feel we had last March at Bruce Eckel’s Programming The New Web. Lots and lots of great stuff. I only hope I can capture a good bit of it and share.
