I have the speaker’s pass so I can attend the Java University (Monday), hands-on labs and all technical sessions divided by the following tracks: Java SE, Java EE, Java ME, Tools, Cool Stuff and BOF sessions. Before even going online, I’ve marked the sessions that looked interesting in the JavaOne brochure. This is how many sessions I've selected in each track: Java University: 0 Hands-on Labs: 2 Java SE: 9 Java EE: 2 Java ME 0 Tools: 1 Cool Stuff: 0 BOF: 2 (I had to pick at least one of them, cause I’m presenting there) I’m not surprised by zeros in Java ME (it’s just not my cup of tea), or in Cool Stuff (it’s not cool for me, but may be cool for someone else), or in Java University (I may still attend one of the four classes. I’ll make my selection when I know who are the instructors). But I was really surprised that I was having a hard time selecting an interesting topic in the Java EE track. I’m sure there will be some good presentations in this track, but this area is not as exciting as it used to be several years ago. I’m not too crazy about AJAX, EJB or Web Services which are represented in at least 50% of the Java EE presentations. On the other hand, it seems that Java SE keeps evolving, and I could have selected even more sessions than I did. In the Tools track I’ll definitely attend the NetBeans session on Matisse. These guys are the talk of the town this year. Reader Feedback: Page 1 of 1
