The Toronto Java User Group is having their monthly
meeting on Oct. 3 and the topic sounds like an
interesting one. I have attached the invite from the
jug coordinator.

The October 2006 meeting will be held this coming Tuesday (October 3rd) at 7PM.
The location is the Rogers Communications Centre (Room RCC 359) at the corner of
Church and Gould.

This month's presentation is titled "Beyond Java there is Seaside", and the
speaker is Yanni Chiu, a seasoned software architect and consultant.

In Bruce Tate's book "Beyond Java", he mentions the Seaside Web-Application
Framework. Here's a chance to see what Seaside does, and how you'd develop code.

Seaside is a highly productive environment for building and deploying highly
interactive web-applications. The talk will explain Seaside's key
characteristics, which are: html generation framework, call/answer, and
components. These features combine to abstract away the mundane details of the
HTTP protocol, so the developer can concentrate on the business function.

We will go through the simple steps required to create a new application,
illustrate how the debugging process is simple and interactive. We will look at
SaltSpray, which is a PetStore work-alike, but "modernized" with a drag 'n drop
interface, implemented using the Scriptaculous/AJAX integration that's available
for Seaside.
