JavaOne 2005

JavaOne is Jun 27 -
30.

Wow, that's next week and just few more hours before the show begins. I'll
let John
Gage keep track of the exact number of hours and provide interesting
statistics to wake up the crowd at 8:30am in the morning. A quick preview of the
conference is available here.

Tracks have
been reorganized to better align with developer needs. For instance, Tools
is an altogether separate track and consists of 37 technical sessions and bofs.
A new track,
and my favorite, on Java Technology and .NET interoperability has been
introduced this time. This track has 6 technical sessions and 2 birds-of-feather
deals with

• Standards for interoperability within Java and .NET
• Live interoperability demonstrations
• Talk about practical interoperability problems between Java and .NET
• Give a future and roadmap for Java and .NET technology
  interoperability 

Along with Sun Microsystems and Microsoft, there are speakers from Oracle,
BEA, IONA, and Burton Group (I think I got them all :). This track, among other
talks, will highlight the work that has been done so far under Sun
Microsoft multiple years agreement. Being involved with SOAPBuilders
and WS-I Sample
Application efforts within Sun, interoperability is somewhat close to my
heart.

The complete content catalog is available here.

Here are the talks I'll be giving:

And then you can find me on the pavilion
floor at least during the following slots:

• Java
  Web Services Developer Pack 1.6 pod: Tuesday, 06/28/2005, 4:30-7:00pm
• Next
  Generation Web Services for Java Developers pod: Monday, 06/27/2005,
  5:15-8:00pm and Wednesday, 06/29/2005, 4:30-7:00pm

And if you really want to meet me, post a comment on my blog with your
contact information and I'll get in touch with you. But since I'll be attending
JavaOne, the response may take some time.

And, it's never late to attend in person, register here.
