Hi Dick, Looking forward to seeing you and Karl at Devoxx.. I'd be happy to cart your hats over from SF if you like.. could even return them in January. I don't mind weird custom quetions.. I've had them all.. like.. try traveling on a paid for by cash ticket after 9/11. You get questions, lots of questions along with a SSSS rating on your boarding pass. And you know that they say, once you go SSSS you can never go back!
The two things that I was not happy to see excluded were the multi-catch and the Elvis operators... no one mentioned Elvis but I think it would have been a very small yet very very useful addition to the language. If you do an interview I'd be interested to know why Elvis got ditched. Kirk Dick Wall wrote: > Hi Folks > > we still have plans to talk to Reiner and co at Devoxx coming up in a > few weeks.
