Now that we're a few weeks into 2010, my speaking calendar is starting to take shape. Already in just the first quarter I think I have more dates set than I did in all of 2009.
If you follow this blog, you know me and you know that I like to yammer on about Spring and OSGi. So it should be no surprise that it is those topics that I'll be talking most about again this year. But I'll be throwing in some other stuff as well.
In case you're interested in attending one of the places I'll be speaking, here's a list of the places I've got on my calendar right now:
- Feb 10th: JavaMUG - Dallas, TX
- I'll be talking about Spring MVC and the new REST features in Spring 3.
- Feb 23rd: SOA User Group - Dallas, TX
- Here I'll be talking about OSGi and how it provides an "SOA in a JVM".
- Feb 27-28: Greater Wisconsin Software Symposium (NFJS) - Milwaukee, WI
- Jay Zimmerman has me scheduled to talk about what's new in Spring 3, OSGi, Spring Roo, and testing beyond JUnit.
- Mar 14th: Twin Cities Software Symposium (NFJS) - Minneapolis, MN
- As in Wisconsin, I'll be talking about Spring 3, OSGi, Spring Roo, and the Spring Expression Language (SpEL).
- Mar 17th: Spring Dallas User Group - Dallas, TX
- We haven't ironed out a specific topic for this event, but I'm sure it will be something about Spring. Any requests?
One way you can keep up with where I'll be speaking is to subscribe to my speaking engagements feed (served via FeedBurner). I will do my best to keep that feed updated.
In addition to all of these fun events, I'm also scheduled to teach a Spring course for my company, Improving Enterprises. The dates are April 6-8 and it will be at the Improving Enterprises offices in Dallas, TX. Do me a favor and tell your friends and tweet about this...it's the first time I've taught a class through Improving and I'd like to see a good turn out.
Put these events on your calendar. I hope to see you at one of them.
