Just as a general FYI, if anyone is interested in speaking or writing
articles about OpenEJB I am more than happy to help you out in any way
I can.
Happy to review slides/text, help you get examples running, give you
ideas on what to write or speak about, show you some advanced
features, even give you some phone time. I may even be able to help
you find a publisher if you need it.
A few topic ideas might be:
- learning ejb 3.0 with OpenEJB; maybe show off the validation
functionality and how it can be used to learn ejb and speed up
development
- advanced ejb dependency injection; show off the ability to extend
injection beyond the spec supported types
- java ee with tomcat; show how to beef up your servlets with
better dependency injection, jms, jpa, transactions, jax-ws, etc.
doesn't even have to use ejbs.
- unit testing ejbs; show anything from basic testing to detailed
configuration, testing transactions, testing security
- unit testing GlassFish apps; yes, we support their descriptors
and can unit test their ejbs just fine.
- host ejbs from your app; show how to embed OpenEJB to make your
application capable of supporting ejbs and even remote ejb clients
- debugging ejbs in your IDE with no plugins; show how when using
openejb to test your apps you can use standard debugging with no
plugins or remote servers.
If you're a member or leader of a Java User Group, feel free to
forward this offer out to your list.
You're welcome to email me directly or via the OpenEJB lists.
