Stay tuned as plans firm up...Jim Baker, Jython guy is hoping to join us in the Fall. What's Jython? It's Python on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). Jim's the Jython guru. He's given great talks in the past here at Ojug. Many of you know him. Jim is a practicing software developer, currently with Rackspace and formerly with Canonical. He's also a prof at Univ of Colorado. You can reach him right here at Codetown.
We normally meet on the 4th Th, but the date may adjust so Jim can also give a talk for the GatorJug.
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.

A recent article reports that an Oracle patent on a fast sorting method has expired, allowing open source databases to use it freely.
