Nem, Very nice! I have bookmarked the Grails web app. Do you have any comments regarding how development went? Any lessons learned to tell?
Nem, This would be a great case study for GatorJUG. Let's talk! /mike
I'm just about to reserve a venue for 12 months of 2013 on the second Wed of each month! <hint>Call for speakers...</hint>
That sounds good, Nem. Thanks. Of the three, the Grails app would be first case study choice, the Android app second and the Atmosphere app third. That is, unless you'd like to talk about them as 2 case studies: the Grails/Android G'Ville Events apps and the Atmosphere app. We get the best turnout with more standard presentations these days, rather than very unique topics.
The next GatorJUG meeting is Wed, January 9th.

I'd be glad to talk about my projects. I have another project that i think would be very interesting to talk about. It is another Grails project that uses atmosphere https://github.com/Atmosphere/
Perfect. If you give me a bio and abstract, I'll do the rest. Second Wed of Jan is 1/9.
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.

AWS has recently introduced durability for Amazon ElastiCache for Valkey, enabling reliable data retention across failures and expanding support beyond caching to persistent workloads. The feature offers new options that prioritize either minimizing data loss or maintaining lower write latency, expanding the range of use cases supported by the Redis fork.

HashiCorp has announced the general availability of the Terraform MCP Server, an open-source MCP server that enables agents to integrate with Terraform Registry APIs. The company says that it can improve infrastructure teams productivity by relieving engineers of rote tasks.

AWS recently announced CDK Mixins, a new AWS CDK feature that lets developers add reusable capabilities like security, monitoring, and configuration to AWS resources. Mixins work across different construct types, making infrastructure code more flexible and reusable.

Google recently announced that WebMCP is entering origin trials in Chrome 149. The new WebMCP standard proposal lets sites expose tools (e.g., JavaScript functions and HTML forms) to in-browser AI agents, which can thus reliably simulate user actions instead of resorting to possibly expensive (e.g., on-screen reading) and often unreliable guesswork (e.g., DOM scraping).

Google has announced the Google Colab CLI, a command-line tool that allows developers and AI agents to interact with remote Colab runtimes directly from a local terminal.
