After the NASA case study I attend the presentation on Microcontainer and OSGi: it was a nice introduction to both topics but it just gave me a overview of those technologies and how MC will support the osgi specification. The current problem, from my point of view , is that java enterprise has so many complicated JSRish papers and standard but people seem they don’t have enough…

Anyway after those we dived into the keynotes:

The first keynote was from Jim Whitehurst,Red Hat CEO, and of course it was interesting to see a non-IT extraction CEO speaking to a 800 it guys…, summarizing the keynote Jim described the “power” of the enterprise opensource model and the ability to steadly innovate and in the same time keeping rock-solid performances ad meet the business needing.

The second one was held by Sacha Laborey, JBoss CTO, and it basically showed up how RH will be reorganized in to business units to support a more flexible and targeted business, then moved on and talked a bit about some products like ESB and developer studio… also said that from tomorrow they will announce something very intersting… let’s wait and see… also during the keynote there were some “technical” problem and on the big screen some Windog showed up…:((I sadly saw way to much windows today… and not in the other attendee I mean…)

After a fast buffet dinner(not bad!) I get into the hackton with John and Ales (MicroContainer Project lead) and after 2h of “hard” work and some coffes we get our hack in place;) , probably tomorrow we’ll clean up a bit a the code and patch it into the repos.

Now it’s really really late…. 1 am here,and tomorrow night there’s the only we’re here: The JBoss Party on Pleasure Island

Night guys,
