[ajug-announce] Big Java Developer Event (FREE)

[Burr Sutter]

The highlight of last night's AJUG Meeting had to been watching the
Glassfish V3 application server start up in 1 second (this is not a typo, I
said 1 second) plus the special announcement concerning Sun Tech Days.

travel/training every year and we all know that continuing education is the
