  • NYCJava.net May monthly general meeting - Monday April 30, 6:30-9pm
Location: NYPC (New Yorker Hotel 34th and 8th Ave Room 550)

Speaker: Elliotte Rusty Harold

Bio: Elliotte Rusty Harold is an adjunct professor of computer science at Polytechnic University in Brooklyn. He is the author of numerous books on Java and XML. His Java news website is http://www.cafeaulait.org and his blog is http://cafe.elharo.com

Topic: Java 7 and Beyond

Description:

2007 will go down in history as the year Sun Microsystems gave up the reins of the Java platform, releasing it under an open source license to the Java developer community. In this talk Java developer Elliotte Rusty Harold predicts new directions for the Java platform, in everything from scripting to bug fixing to new syntax. We'll talk about various proposals for both the language and libraries including closures, type inference, I/O, and more.

There will be door prizes (courtesy of O'Reilly and Sun Microsystems) followed by a networking dinner & drinks afterwards.


Also the NYJavaSIG has a meeting Wed April 25 at Google:
The OpenLaszlo RIA Framework and The Google Web Toolkit (GWT)
