OrlandoJUG September
Hello OJUG,
I'm in San Francisco for Java One. Chris Schaefer is doing a great job with the Sarasota JUG and Vlad's hosting some amazing presentations at the Tampa JUG. The JAX Jug is busy as usual. Miami JUG is on hiatus until next year. Meanwhile, there are tons of interesting Meetups around O-Town and the Space Coast. I hope all of you are well and busy. I look forward to another amazing J1 with info to absorb about functional programming, NoSQL, graph db's, Java 8, other languages on the JVM and more. So, thanks for your patience and loyalty. We have great presentations in store. See y'all when I get back. Please post some interesting discussions here on Codetown. By the way, I snagged www.codetown.com from the cybersquatters, so it'll be easier to remember/suggest.
All the best,
Michael Levin
