First NoFluffJustStuff of the year

Posted by: Dave Klein on February 28, 2009

It's finally here. The first NFJS of 2009! I'm sitting in Scott Davis' "Dim Sum Grails" session right now. Yesterday Scott had three brand new Groovy talks. They were very good. He's moving beyond the "what is Groovy" and into some really cool stuff. All, of course, in his award winning style!

There are also new sessions from Neal Ford, David Geary, Ken Sipe, Venkat Subramaniam, Mark Richards, Stuart Halloway and Brain Goetz. Since I haven't mastered the art of being in two places at once I will pretty much be in the Scott Davis track and then the Brian Goetz track.

I'll try to post more later. For now back to the dim sum!
