All the planning and hard work paid off: NetBeans Day 2005 was a huge success. My report on what happened includes samples of some of the most interesting things I saw.

My java.net blogging debut begins on a trip from the Atlantic to the Pacific to attend the 2005 JavaONE in San Francisco. The long flight gives me time to ponder the world of the Java Community Process (JCP).
It's 10PM and we're wrapping up the first day of the first-ever Java Community Leader's Weekend.
The definitive guide to Keynotes, Technical Sessions and BOFS involving JSF at JavaOne 2005.
After ten years, what is new and interesting at this year's JavaOne?
The JDK Community will be hosting a Community Meet and Greet June 28 at 6:00 at the Argent Hotel in San Francisco

JavaOne 2005 is here and I'll be there. Will you ?
There should be a plethora of bloggers at JavaOne this year, which is only a couple of weeks away (June 27-30). With Microsoft co-opting ... I mean co-sponsoring the event, it promises to be an even more interesting gathering than any previous Java celebration. Is there anything in particular you would like to see a blogger from java.net cover at JavaOne this year?

Is this going to happen this year ... probably yes since now we are friends with Microsoft and Scott said it :)
Beware of the dog, I mean the button - this year the system has changed and once you click "Submit - Finalize" your submission is final.
The JavaOne Call for Papers is finally set - see it at http://java.sun.com/javaone/sf/cfp/index.jsp
Is JavaOne about the technical content? For most developers, yes. Is it about marketing products? For the vendors, sure. Is it about getting industry hype and announcing new stuff? For Sun, sure. But to me, it's about getting together with friends, and *networking* at a far more meaningful level than any technical session, keynote, vendor sales pitch, or new Java release.
Bidding fond farewell to JavaOne 2004 - the final technical sessions.
