Hi all, Here's a reminder that the Amsterdam Wicket Meetup is in slightly more than 5 weeks time!
It is meetup time again! Our last Amsterdam Meetup was a big success and we want to continue that tradition. Over 80 Wicket developers attended the previous meetup and we had a blast. If you have missed the previous meetup from Nov 30th, 2007 you can see the pictures online [1], or enjoy the presentations [2]. Attending is simple: simply add your name to the wiki page and you're all set! http://cwiki.apache.org/WICKET/wicket-community-meetups-amsterdam.html If you have an idea for a talk, presentation, demo, discussion, or whatever you feel like, be sure to add it to the Wiki page. Please note that no fee has been set yet for attending, since we're still looking for some sponsors. But it'll be either free or extremely cheap - 25 Euros or so. We'll still have to pay for the room you see :) This Meetup will happen at the same time and in the same place as the ApacheCon Europe 2008, its bigger sister conference. Whereas the Meetup is purely about Wicket, run by the community, ApacheCon gives you an much bigger overview covering the entire Apache stack. There's no obligation to attend ApacheCon, but we're trying to get a good deal for Meetup attendees that want to visit ApacheCon too. For more info about ApacheCon, take a look at http://www.eu.apachecon.com/ Impress your boss with a deeper understanding of Wicket, or the new treasure chest of components that have been unveiled at the meetup. Meet other Wicket developers and share your hopes, victories and frustrations. Expand your network of Wicket developers! See you all in Amsterdam beginning of April! -- Arjé Cahn --------------- Some background on the Wicket meetup: The Amsterdam meetup is meant for everyone interested in Wicket, on all different expertise levels.
