We’re making some changes at JavaOne to give you more hours than ever to take advantage of the hundreds of technical sessions, hands-on labs, and BOFs that will be offered this year.
To free up time for session slots on Monday and Tuesday, the Java Strategy, Partner, and Technical keynotes will be held on the Sunday of conference week, beginning at 4:00 p.m. And in order to accommodate the ever-growing number of attendees, the location for the keynotes is new this year as well: the historic Masonic Auditorium on Nob Hill. After the keynotes, attendees can go to the official JavaOne Open House at the Taylor Street Café @ the Zone.
As in years past, Sunday will feature User Group meetings (at Moscone West) and Java University courses (Hilton San Francisco Union Square). On Thursday, the Java Community keynote will return—always a great way to start wrapping up the week.

Google has introduced Code Wiki, a new platform designed to keep software documentation continuously synchronized with the code it describes. The system generates a structured wiki for each repository, automatically updates it after every change, and powers an integrated chat interface that understands the entire codebase.
