So What Are We Going To Talk About?

 

One of the most alarming discoveries for newcomers to Open Space conferences
is that there is not a pre-planned agenda.  The conference has a strong,
central theme, but the specific topics and talks that are convened emerge at
the start of the session and evolve as it progresses.

 For our particular event, here are a few topics that attendees have already
mentioned:

 

- Out-of-container testing approaches for EJB3

- Struts 2.0 - Struts 1.x migration path, or too little too late?

- JSF and non-table-based layouts; Sisyphean task?

- Dynamic Languages on the JVM - who's using them?

- JRuby on Rails - anyone?

- Layered architectures off the server in Java; does it really happen?

- Judicious use of Ajax in JEE web applications

- Signs of an anemic domain model and what to do about it

- Agile schmagile; what do we really mean with that?
