Free Java @ JavaOne 1999 - I need contacts
Okay so there seems to be general interest in me setting this up. The dealine for the proposal is the end of next week (yeah, I meant to do this last month but didn't - what can I say) so I need the following - >From each group please select one person to represent the group who will be able to make it to JavaOne next year to be part of the BOF and give a short presentation of their particular project. I need their name, affiliation, address, email, phone numbers and website for the proposal. The BOFs are only 60 minutes in length and while I'm sure we could all give length presentations about our own thing, we don't have the time (unless Sun decide to give us our own 2 hour track - I will make enquiries). Per Bothner's suggestion for format seems about right to me (essentially each group give a 5-10 minute talk, then we have an open floor kind of thing) though I'm open to alternatives. I will write the abstract for the BOF and pass it round to the group representative (and mailing list in general) for comments, but please note we have limited time for argument. At the moment the groups I have in mind for this are: Japhar - Hungry Programmers Kaffe - Transvirtual GCJ - Cygnus Java on Linux - "whatever umbrella they work under" Classpath - the GNU Classpath people There may be others but if there are I'll have to get a 2 hour slot somehow.

Re: Free Java @ JavaOne 1999
Sounds reasonable. One format is 5-10 presentation from each group, followed by 5-10 minutes questions to a specific group, followed by open floor. However, 60 minutes in length may not be enough for all the groups. Two back-to-back sessions would be better, if we could get it. Alternatively, just having separate sessions may make more sense. I suspect we could fill a 60-minute session on our own! --Per Bothner Cygnus Solutions [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.cygnus.com/~bothner
RE: Free Java @ JavaOne 1999
I'm definitely interested. My suggestion would be to make sure that this BOF is as near the beginning of the conference as possible. This will help us to have the maximum amount of time available during the conference with which to collaborate with each other, since we will have already met each other earlier. Also, make sure that it doesn't conflict with a possible JavaLobby BOF. - Avery J.

Free Java @ JavaOne 1999
All, Don't know if anyone else is looking into this but we'd like to put together a free Java BOF at the coming JavaOne and obviously it'd make sense to get all the free Java people together for this. We've tried to do this informally the last two years (they confiscated the megaphone last year) but though we might try to get it into the official program this year. Any interest?
