If you're near the Google campus this Wednesday, Oct 21, please stop in for the Ajax Push Panel:The Chronicles of Web Standard Prince Comet: Next Wave of Comet. I'll be there along with Alex Russell, Michael Carter, Greg Wilkins, and Dylan Schiemann. It should be a good opportunity to discuss the impact of Google Wave and Cloud Computing on push technologies. Should Google support Servlet 3.0 in the Google App Engine, or should they force people to use proprietary technologies? Should ICEfaces Ajax Push be split out into a separate push server, available with no dependency on JSF?
Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

An article on Martin Fowler’s blog by Kief Morris examines the role of humans in AI-assisted software engineering, arguing developers are unlikely to move fully “out of the loop.” Instead, teams may work “on the loop,” designing tests, specifications, and feedback mechanisms to guide AI agents, as industry discussions focus on how such systems should be verified and governed.

At QCon London 2026, Spotify's Jo Kelly-Fenton and Aleksandar Mitic discussed Honk, an AI-powered coding agent that enables code migrations across Spotify's codebase. The system improves migration, reducing timelines drastically and addressing complexities that traditional scripts could not. Key challenges included handling edge cases and standardizing the codebase to facilitate review processes.
