Codetown ::: a software developer's community
Hi Hello OrlandoJUG!
Today is our monthly JUG meeting. Jim Clarke will discuss the new release cadence and new Java features.
More info in the Events section here.
Please RSVP if you plan to come so we know how much pizza to order.
We have only one meeting left this year before we break for holidays. If you're interested in presenting, please contact me. Otherwise, we'll have a social meeting at the Eden Bar next to the Enzian at www.enzian.org.
All the best and looking forward to seeing many of you soon.
