On September 30th, I gave my Java EE 6 preview talk at the Philly JUG. Run by Dave Fecak of JSync, the Philly JUG is one of the most successful ones in the world. The attendance was very good and so was the level of discussion, specially considering the size of the JUG. There was a lot of excitement around Java EE 6 and I got a lot of positive feedback on the talk itself. I am hoping a number of folks will send their comments directly to the EG by emailing jsr-316-comments@jcp.org. I spoke at the Philly JUG about a year ago on Spring and EJB 3. It was a pleasure giving that talk as well.
It’s also always great to work with Dave. He has done an amazing job keeping the community engaged and growing the JUG.
