As discussed (mostly by me granted) at the last meeting we should look around at other possible venues for the next meeting.

July DubJUG Meeting

Just to give a quick run-down on how the meeting went yesterday. It was very well attended for a summer meeting. We had a long table in Thomas Reads and several conversations on the go at all times. Topics ranged from how to hide a program in a JPEG, to Ryanair vs Aer Lingus and which had the better website.

2008 Conference

Tagged:  

We are looking for topic suggestions for the November conference. What topics or themes would you like to see or for that matter is there anything else you would like to see included, covered or involved in some way.

Last year we got a pretty good reception and the schedule went down well, so hopefully it was not a fluke or coincidence.

We also want to increase the numbers - this means we can get better speakers and more coverage within the community and ultimately that will help DubJug prosper, so suggestions for promoting the event are also welcome

June Meetup

The next Java meetup will take place on Tuesday the 17th of June. As the forum bar is under renovation we will move down the street to Thomas Reeds (opposite City Hall). The meeting will take place at the usual time of 19.30.

The date is a slight departure from the usual 2nd Tuesday of each month, so make a note in your diary. Reminders will be sent a few days before the meeting.

Universities and your local JUG

Java is the most exciting and dynamic software development platform on this planet. The lingua franca of the software industry, dynamic languages, rich multimedia, awesome scalability, desktop, server and mobile and embedded. We want to encourage and help the next generation of Ireland's programmers by working together with colleges to provide students with insight into the Java ecosystem and perspectives on life after school.

The Best Java Tools You Never Knew Existed

I was at an awesome presentation yesterday at JavaOne of the long tail of Java tools that not many people have come across, which I had to share. So, in no particular order, and with my own emotive comments:

  • Apache Abdera - work easily with Atom feeds. See also Rome.
  • Antlr - this parser generator can look daunting, but it's pretty easy once you get your head around it. Can be used to parse things like complex URLs where regexps are not up to the job.
