Sun finally charges something for Java, so what’s next?

by David Qiao on May.29, 2009, under Conferences, Technology, Uncategorized

Just read an interesting news that Sun charges for the support when using the new GC called G1. Sun always had trouble making money from Java. With Oracle’s influence, things will change. I am looking forward to finding out what announcement it will be on next Tuesday during JavaOne general session.

by David Qiao on May.27, 2009, under Conferences

It will be JavaOne next week. It had been a great experience in the last couple of years as I got a chance to meet many old and new friends each time. I will present a TS and a BOF this year.  See the schedule below.

  • TS-4706 Bringing JTable to Extreme, June 6, 2009, Friday 13:30 to 14:30, Hall E 135 Moscone
  • BOF-4707 JideFX: Bring Desktop Richness to the Internet, June 5, 2009, Thursday 18:30 to 19:20,  Hall E 135 Moscone

Hope you can make them. Otherwise, please drop me an email at david @ jidesof.com if you want to meet during the conference. I am looking forward to meeting you in person.
