If your project's NEW technology needs exposure, if you are in search of users for these new features or to recruit more committers to a new code base, and you are in Amsterdam for ApacheCon/EU, this last reminder message is for you. We will close the program and print the final schedule on Tuesday afternoon, so act now!
Or perhaps you want to share a technological leap your project made in the use of some additional tools, or introduce a new concept in order to attract folks to a BOF you are hosting? Just to give you a sample... here are the topics already proposed, there are 5 15 minutes slots open on Wednesday afternoon and 3 more slots on Thursday afternoon. The current Wed/Thurs topics include; Apache JDO 2.1, an update of the Java Data Objects spec Mahout (Lucene) - Bringing Machine Learning to Industrial Strength MIME Magic with Apache Tika XMPP Server: IM and beyond (Vysper Lab) Developing OSGi with the Felix SCR Plugin Apache Sling - A Content Based Web Development Framework Start loving your middleware with Apache Qpid Invitation to the Shindig (OpenSocial) OOXML in Apache POI An Introduction to W3C State Chart XML (Commons SCXML) Rolling out Debugable Win32 Binaries Apache MyFaces Trinidad What's new in Apache Cactus Introducing Scala: Developing a new DSL for Apache Camel This gives you a taste of the sorts of topics being offered in this concise forum, tailored to the detail (and leaving more exploration of the technology up to the attendee, through the website, additional resources, and by corning the speaker after their presentation). You have exactly 15 minutes to get the point across. Note this forum is not for rehashing established technologies or projects, but for introducing ApacheCon attendees, especially our fellow ASF contributors, to new code, features, specifications and so forth. In other words, it's ideal for the incubator, labs, but also new sub-projects and new code which is scattered across the entire foundation! Won't you join us? Please email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with your session title, abstract, name and short bio (if your bio is not yet on the ApacheCon website). Please note; presenting a FFT short session comes with only the perks of karma and recognition, not the complete set of speaker perks offered to hour-long session presenters. Many thanks, Bertrand, Bill, and Carsten your FastFeather organizers --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
