NFJS is 10 years old now! I started on the NFJS tour fairly early and it's been absolute
fun. The attendees on this tour are smart and the speakers have become close friends.
Love the show and glad to be on it again in 2010. My topics include Java, Scala, Groovy,
and agile practices. |

This is a conference focused on Architecture. This is the first time I will be at
this conference and looking forward to learning from others at the event. My talk
most likely will be "Tell me about your Architecture, I will tell you about your Organization." |

Summer in Denver this year is going to be hotter than usual with Über Conf coming
to town. This conference will offer an eclectic mixture of languages on the JVM and
practical agility. The speaker round up looks awesome and the conference price includes
a number of interesting workshops. Can't wait for this one. |

good participation from the attendees. |
