Hello guys and gals! I've been a member of the yahoo group for a few months since I had been eyeing a move to Jacksonville for a while (mostly lurking, I think...
Greetings Whaley, Welcome to the First Coast! The JUG hasn't been doing very well as far as meetings, and I don't know of anything scheduled for now. There...
... Ditto ... We mostly lack a leader/organizer. I don't think location is an issue. But if that is, we can look into that. Also there was some talk about ...
Nope, I didn't mean to imply that location has been a problem, we've had good people step up to that. Nor that Lynch's is a good place for real meetings with...
... Yep, the one I attended a few times in California, Marin County JUG. Seems to have died some time ago. There wasn't one in Sonoma County where I lived. But...
... A situation that's hardly unique to IT - all sorts of social/professional organizations have seen attendance drop over the last 20+ years, from AITP all...

Thanks Joe / William, It's good to be here! I actually made the move completely for personal reasons, but worked out a deal with my employer to work remotely -...
... And it's only getting better!!! ... FYI I moved back to Jax in 03 for personal reasons. It's my home town ;) Couldn't stand the liberals out west :) But...
Looks like Lynch's tonight is going to be out of the question for me, unfortunately. Perhaps next week? On Sat, Nov 1, 2008 at 7:57 PM, William L. Thomson Jr....
... Works for me, let me put it on the schedule/calendar. I forgot about today and would be unable to make it myself :) Bet Joe will still be there, but that's...
... Don't know about any Joes, but Joe Sam will be there, and will probably raise one for you, in a class-ical way. Sorry, I couldn't think of anything better....
I normally don't post questions but but as a member I enjoy the interaction between members.thus I was hoping someone could help me with a request... does...
There was an Ada group in Central Florida (Melbourne, I think). Although that was several years back. I wouldn't be surprised to hear of others. Tim...

... Ok I am 50/50 at this point on going to Lynch's tonight. Really want to go, but quite buried with work and being forced to multitask on a few things. So...
I'm in the same boat again (two Thursday production releases in a row for me). I'll try to make it, but no promises. --Whaley On Wed, Nov 12, 2008 at 11:47...
I plan to be at Lynch's as usual, but if there are no solid others, I'll probably arrive around my usual time: 9 - 9:30. If we have a time when others are...
I would be glad to give a talk if you want to get together sometime . Topic could be Java Persistence api, Restful webservices with jax-rs, dojo javascript...
... Maybe we can line something up for January. Start 09 off right, and hopefully follow it up with presentations every month. Still considering stepping up to...
Carol, I'd be down for hearing about JPA, since I'm largely ignorant of the ORM and database tier abstractions in java. Though I probably won't be ready for...
Oooh, my ears are burning. :) ... I think that's me. And BTW, I prefer fixed prices for fixed work, but when I have to go on a treasure hunt, that's when my...

Tim, Is there a way to comment on your blog? I wanted to drop a comment on your Why Software Projects Should Not Depend on an IDE ...
Jason, I must admit that I'm set up primarily to be pompous, bombastic and arrogant, but I did a check, and supposedly that topic is open to comments (click...

Amen, I wish everyone thought like you guys. I'm a strong believer of the 2 step build process. Step 1. extract code. Step 2. Execute build command. It's...
I wish I could be amazed. All I get is depressed. Why should I expect anything but sloppy builds when we're so accepting of sloppy designs and sloppy code? To...

While applets have never been the big win that they were expected to be, for one reason or another, they still have their uses. And in my case, paid the rent...

Really too bad about Java applets... Sun was so close with it. Java applets are on the order of about 10 times more efficient than flash applets. Now Flash and...
... Actually, Sun sued because Microsoft tried to hijack Java and make it dependent on MS-only classes and a MS-only JVM. Microsoft lost the suit. Microsoft...
