It’s always exciting to get JavaOne notifications – after all it is still the premier global Java conference! I have five talks this year. One is a technical session titled “Patterns and Best Practices for CDI” that I’m co-presenting with Ryan Cuprak.

The exuberant crowd was in stark contrast to the comparatively lackluster Java conferencesContinue reading “Speaking at Java2days 2010”
