Event Description
It looks like we're going to have another social meeting at First Magnitude. I just got back from www.solidcon.com, so I'll have a lot to report. I know several of you are working on new projects. It will be good to hear about them. Also, there's a lot of buzz about Java 9, so I'll bring some info to share.
Please post your Java questions here on Codetown. And, don't hesitate to discuss other software topics in the forum or the other interest groups.
As always, I hope to see you at the July GatorJUG!
