Last chance for JRubyOne...er...JavaOne proposals

Charles Oliver Nutter

12/19/2008 9:05:00 PM

Today is the last day for JavaOne proposals, and we're really hoping to
get some "real" rubyists showing these Java guys how it's done. Right
now we've got some basic proposals for a Ruby language/classes/libraries
intro, a JRuby/Java integration talk, various deployment talks for
different servers, GUI and Graphics talks, and hopefully we'll get
someone from Rails core to do a Rails talk. But what are we missing? Do
you have a talk or know someone with a really convincing talk that would
help win over some of the Java masses?

At any rate, if you have anything you'd like to present to a big room
(our JRuby talks have been in a room that seats 1500), stop by
http://java.sun.co... and give it a shot. There's a whole world
of developers there (15k people at JavaOne last year) that really need
to learn Ruby.

Hey, Charlie,

I proposed a "polyglot" talk, where I'll make the case for "mixing it
up" on the JVM using one (or more) of JRuby, Scala, or Clojure. I
intend to discuss the advantages/disadvantages of each language and
how to choose what's best for your needs, etc., etc.

Great Dean, sounds like a perfect topic. Maybe even more likely to get
in than a talk focused on a single language.

Thanks Robert :) I think this will be a great year for JRuby...we have
an opportunity to win over a lot of converts.
