Event Description
Welcome to the first meeting of 2010! GatorJUG is here for you to learn about Java and all of the software development lifecycle, in general. There are no fees, lots of good presentations and free giveaways...and munchies every meeting.
Please join the GatorJUG group here on Codetown. It makes inviting you to these meetings much easier!
We'll have an iPhone development meeting with open forum. I think that would be interesting to a broad range of developers, especially the ones that do Java apps on the Blackberry. Bring us your case studies! We'll also hear about Clojure development from Eric Lavigne, the winner of the first Contest Town coding contest!
Feel free to invite a friend. Please RSVP here so we'll know how much pizza to order.
We're looking for a sponsor for this meeting. If you or your company is interested, please contact Mike Levin...thanks in advance!

Thanks, Eric. I corrected the RSVP link on the www.gatorlug.org website announcing this event. I hope the word gets out. We want lots of people to attend and learn about Clojure, iPhone dev and ... Wari! Did you know Starbucks is selling Wari games now? I came back from Senegal with only rules in my memory I learned in the market in the village called Kaolack where I bought my game. I copied the rules one day at Starbucks from a game there. It's truly deceptively challenging. Great job on your implementation of the Wari game using Clojure.
Do you think you could invite some of your colleagues at University of Florida and elsewhere to the meeting? That would be great! Thanks again, Mike

The RSVP link at http://www.gatorlug.org/node/255 is broken because it points to gatorjug-2 instead of gatorjug-on-iphone
Happy 10th year, JCertif!

OpenAI Releases GPT-6 Astra for Coding and Computer Use
OpenAI has released GPT-6 Astra, a new model focused on coding, computer use, long-running agentic tasks, and cybersecurity, with availability across ChatGPT, Codex, and the OpenAI API.
By Daniel DominguezBeyond Autonomous Teams in Software Product Development
Autonomous teams are an article of faith in modern software development. The shape of our value determines what we can do; it determines our trade-offs between agency and coherence. We all have a purpose, and we all have agency to do something, hence the suggestion is moving from product focus to value center thinking.
By Ben LindersPresentation: Accelerating Performance by Incrementally Integrating Rust Into Existing Codebase
Lily Mara explains how to avoid high-risk software rewrites through incremental FFI refactoring. She shares how engineering teams can replace Python bottlenecks with Rust via PyO3, demonstrating how to achieve dramatic function-level speedups, seamless integration testing, and meaningful infrastructure cost savings without microservice overhead.
By Lily MaraArticle: When Spec-Driven Development Pays Off
AI coding assistants have become a core part of software development. AI-generated code has shown productivity gains, but it's also contributing to security weaknesses and familiar bug patterns. In this article, author Nitin Garg highlights the bottleneck has moved from code generation to code verification, and how to detect & mitigate it when the AI-generated behavior diverges from the intent.
By Nitin GargIETF Publishes RFC 10008, Adding the QUERY Method for Safe Requests With a Body
In June 2026, the IETF published RFC 10008, introducing the QUERY method to HTTP, the first new standard HTTP verb since 2010. QUERY enables developers to send richer query filters in the request body while maintaining cacheable, safe, and idempotent semantics. This addition addresses long-standing limitations with GET and POST methods, facilitating improved API interactions.
