Our very first Java Unconference
This location is shown only to members
Have you got something interesting to say about Java? Want to talk to other people with similar interests?
The London Java Community are pleased to announce that their first 'unconference' will run on Saturday November the 28th 2009. The venue will be IBM's Southbank location http://www-05.ibm.com....
What is an unconference? It is defined on Wikipedia as a "facilitated, participant-driven conference centered around a theme or purpose" http://en.wikipedia.o... Our theme will be Java....
We know that Java is a fairly broad subject area - but we didn't want to limit creativity by narrowing the scope. This leaves people free to talk on the Java language, Spring, Hibernate, Open Source and Java, OSGi, perhaps even JVM languages, anything Java that you want....
As is traditional with this type of event, the content will be provided by the audience. To help us ensure that we have enough conference rooms, we are asking you to indicate whether or not you intend to speak at the event. We are also charging a small fee to attend - this is simply to cover costs (lunch, coffees etc), the aim is to break even on the event. Any profit will be put behind the bar after the event.
Thanks to a LJC member Zoe Slattery and our own Martijn Verburg for the organising of this.

Richard DallawayA useful and enjoyable event: I'm a fan of the unconference format and I hope this will become a regular event. The only thing missing that I've found handy from other unconferences was a round where people would announce what they were thinking of talking about, and the opportunity for others to ask for what they'd like to hear about.

Xabier BurgosBrilliant, a fantastic opportunity to meet fellow developers and specially a good way of putting a face and some personality onto the email addresses of the LJC people. The conferences were also entertaining and never got bored, some of them would have deserved a bit more time, though.
