Greetings!

I hope you can join us for the 2006 edition of the New York Software
Symposium (www.nofluffjuststuff.com/sh/2006-08-newyork) returning August
18-20th. We have a great lineup of speakers and excellent sessions for
you to enjoy!

What makes for a great technical conference?

* Excellent Speakers
* Timely, relevant topics
* Lack of Marketecture - "Fluff"
* Small Size - insure high level of interaction between speakers/attendees

The 2006 NewYork Software Symposium has all of the above!

Make sure and plan to join us once again for the best technically
focused Java/Open Source/Agility based event anywhere, the NewYork
Software Symposium returning August 18-20th. NYSS 2006
(www.nofluffjuststuff.com/sh/2006-08-newyork) will have four concurrent
sessions to choose from featuring coverage on Core Java, Client-side
Java, Server-side Java , Architecture and Agility. Experience a
conference where the technical focus/presentation is the priority. You
will not see any fluffy marketecture at NYSS 2006. Since the attendance
for NYSS 2006 is capped at 200 people, you will have the opportunity to
interact with speakers and fellow attendees in a unique, welcoming
environment. NYSS 2006 is a stop on the No Fluff Just Stuff 2006 Tour
which will be in over twenty-five (25) cities this year both U.S. and
Canada. Since 2002, the No Fluff Just Stuff Java Symposium Series has
