jSpirit is a new Java unconference in the Bavarian alps. Starting in Winter 2018, we’re down for Spirits, Ski & JAVA. How does that sound do you?
Spirits
jSpirit is the first Java (un)conference ever being held in a distillery (at least to our knowledge). And it’s not just any distillery – it’s Europe’s most modern distillery: Lantenhammer Erlebnisdestillerie Hausham!
By the way: we are renting the entire distillery: lunch will be served in the main storage depot between all the whisky, gin, rum and schnapps barrels. And we can hold sessions everywhere, even right by the stills!
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.

Cloudflare has moved a post-quantum rebuild of GeoKey Manager into closed beta, guarding geo-fenced keys with hybrid ML-KEM-768 and X25519 instead of the attribute-based encryption used since 2022. Keys live only in kernel memory on verified regional servers, and any failed check rejects the request, a fail-closed choice practitioners ask could cause a regional outage. GA is planned for Q1 2027.

Fortanix's CoCo integration connects workload attestation to decryption-key release for Kubernetes AI workloads. GPU-verification settings affect protection, while upstream Trustee and Azure Secure Key Release offer alternative routes to attestation-based key release.

LocalStack has opened its Azure emulator to a free public preview, running Azure services locally and accepting existing ARM, Bicep, and Terraform without rewrites. Its own documentation reports partial operation coverage per service and a consistent pattern: configuration is stored and returned, while enforcement of access restrictions, TLS, and network rules is not implemented.
