  • JavaOne 2006 - Day 4: Roundup

    Guess you must be wondering what Afterdark was like? It was nice, although less spectacular than I hoped for. The Mythbusters didn't do any insane things, like blowing up cement trucks. That was a pity. The t-shirt hurling compo was fun though with a...

  • JavaOne 2006 - Day 2: Madhouse...

  • JavaOne 2006 - Day 0: Pre Conference

    A little late, but better later than never. I've had some problems getting a wireless connection. The hotel I'm staying in houses so many Java geeks this week that the maximum amount of wireless connections is easily reached. I guess the same thing goes...

  • Promotion!

    About two days ago I was appointed by Klaasjan Tukker (JUG lead) to serve in the NL-JUG Executive Committee. My first 'offical' act was to help judge the session proposals for the upcoming J-Spring 2006 conference. Tough job considering the large amount...

    Location information in Schedule Builder is available as we speak. So repeat the whole procedure mentioned in the previous post to update your personal (vCal) schedule with location and room information. I also received a contribution from David Cooper...
