fnokd!

As mentioned previously, at the JBoss World 2008 conference in Orlando, we’ll be running a Hackathon.

Now’s the time to head over to the Hackathon wiki, and start making some plans. If you haven’t bought your pass to JBoss World yet, you need to jump on that, also. There’s less than a month before we’re […]

Tomorrow, I’m trekking down from my mountain to the flatlands, destined for Raleigh.
FUDCon Raleigh 2008 is taking place. In the interest of Red Hat open-source communities playing friendly and synergizing, I’ve been invited to join the Fedora Board. This means I’ve also installed VMWare Fusion and have built a Fedora image for my Mac.

Luckily, […]

Since I’ve been with JBoss, we’ve been making a move towards “the Fedora model” in terms of the divide between the open-source community projects and the “official” bits you can buy support against. Once we introduced our Platforms and Frameworks product configurations, it became slightly less clear what was what. Unlike Fedora, when […]

Once again, we’ll announce winners of the Innovation Awards at JBoss World in February.

While there’s other opportunities for the projects at JBoss to get the nod for their innovation, the Innovation Awards are a chance for you, the users of JBoss projects, to get some glory. That glory includes a free pass to the […]

The 2008 JBoss World conference has been announced as happening in Orlando during February 13-15. That’s Valentine’s Day. Bring your sweetie south, and thaw out with some hot Java in the sun.
Want to be a superstar and get a free pass to the conference? Of course you do!
Just submit a presentation. […]

Tom Baeyens has written a nice blog introduction to a technical article on the Process Virtual Machine.
Tom’s blog is great, because it gives you an understanding of the problems and commonalities between various process/workflow/orchestration technologies. I faffed about with Werkflow though a few revisions, all failing miserably.
I think workflow (and rules) will ultimately be […]

I got back from my first ever JavaOne, and I’d have to say it was a success.
First the obligatory “look how cool I am” section…
Name dropping
Misc
Drank too much with Hani of the BileBlog. Congratulated Cameron & John Purdy at the Tangosol party. Finally met Phil Dodds and Brett Porter, from DevZuz. Dan […]

JavaOne is next week. Would you believe this is the first JavaOne I’ll ever have attended?
Some of my colleagues have put together a page detailing JBoss’s participation at the conference.
Speakers from JBoss include Gavin King and Emmanuel Bernard, Michael Yuan, Tom Baeyens and many others.
I’ll be hanging out at Booth #1418 along with James […]

Just got back from Vegas, where I participated on a panel about opensource and business at TheServerSide Java Symposium. It involved five of us from businesses that were related to opensource in some form. It did not include Geir Magnusson, who apparently had better things to do.

Alfresco, John Newton
JBoss, some guy with a […]

James Governor of RedMonk had a less-than-flattering comment about how JBoss blogs.

I think part of the problem is that a lot of interesting JBoss blogging occurs at places other than blogs.jboss.com. Basically, you simply have to look further than blogs.jboss.com.
For example, the JBoss Rules team blogs hellagood over at the JBoss Rules Blog. […]
