GlassFish and JavaOne 2010

The Aquarium — Mon, 13 Sep 2010 04:55:00 +0000

JavaOne this year is held at a different location (Maps.Bing, Maps.Google) and in different dates (Sept 19-24), but it is still full of activities. To help you track them, here are a few links. Let's start with:

• Home page
• Agenda
• Catalog
• Registration
• Schedule Builder
• My Registration
• Navigate

Other useful links include Oracle World Unconference, Duke Award Winners, Java University, Rock Stars Wall of Fame, and all JCP activities.

The bulk of the activities are in "The Zone", San Francisco's Hotel Nikko, Hilton San Francisco, and Parc 55 hotels and the surrounding area. The area includes:

Other variations from previous years include MySQL Sunday - the Sessions include presentations by Edward Screven, Tomas Ulin and Marten Mickos - the co-location with Oracle Develop - the same ticket will get you in both events - and free admission for students.

On the GlassFish side there are plenty of activities, from Hands-on-Labs, to technical sessions. Harpreet put together a cheat-sheet for all GF-related events; that is two pages full of events... starting with the Community Event and Party (Event: S319368).

There is more information on JavaOne on many channels, includingTwitter (JavaOneConf and #javaone10), FaceBook (JavaOne and ILoveJava), and Blogs (OTN, Develop, and other) and videos like Jerome's and Preview TechCast.

Finally, don't forget that GlassFish 3.1 M5 will be available next week (see 3.1 posts). Enjoy!

Forward – into the future

Nicklas Westerlund — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 16:09:32 +0000

Looking back at the short-term, it wasn’t long since MySQL was bought by Sun, and yesterday the deal with Oracle was finalized.

I want to take this time to thank everyone involved in MySQL and the surrounding community for their hard work, and express my wishes that you look forward to the future and what it might hold, I am sure it will be great.

I think that if done correctly, we as a community can benefit from these changes in the long run, so let’s look forward rather than backward.

On a sidenote, mysql.com is quite slow today, perhaps as a result of high load due to masses of people wanting to check out the news. However, sun.com has now been redirected to Oracle.com.

Turns out however that things such as the documentation is still missing, hopefully it will return soon. As an example for what I mean, take a look at the documentation and you will notice that it is all empty.

So, to everyone, a happy 2010 and best wishes to Oracle.
