Byte-Code MeetUp 2008

Every year, Byte-Code organizes a event for its employees and consultants to build new strategies and watching new technologies all together.

This year focus was agile approach on java development, with technologies like groovy and grails. There were also some very interesting (and useful!) presentations about regression tests for web applications, project management strategies an, last but not least, some new and innovative products developed in Byte-Code and released under GPL license: Symbolic and “SuperVisor”.

Antonio (RedHat channel manager) presented the “strong” relationship between Byte-Code, RedHat and JBoss. The only problem was the time! There wasn’t enough time to make some discussion about technologies after presentations… surely next year we’ll try to organize something better and with much more time!

All presentation were very professional and have opened new opportunities for lot of byte-code crew!

But this is nothing compared to the rafting activity planned for Saturday! It was simply great! I’ve never done rafting before, but it is very exciting and awesome! :-)

It was really “go wet”, not only for rafting… it rained during for all the time of the event! …as usual (the same last year for golf activities…)

Samuele trust me that all material made for the event (slides, videos and so on…) will be available online as soon as possible.

I really would like to thank you all Byte-Code people for all theirs help and contributions. MeetUp is being a really cool event!
