London GGUG, 9th December

Posted on November 27th, 2009 Peter 10 comments

So it looks like we’ll be able to fit a GGUG into the Groovy & Grails Exchange at SkillsMatter in London. The question is, what to do for it? Here are the suggestions I have seen so far:
1. Host a couple of talks that didn’t make it into the conference.
2. A session like Google’s OpenJam in which people talk about their projects for 10-15 mins.
3. Graeme and I talk about the internals of Grails and how to contribute.
If you have any other ideas, or favour one of the options above, let me know in the comments.

Thanks,

Peter

  4. Drink a lot of beer and talk about trucks&girls ?
  
  I think that 3. can be a good option
  See you all next week !

  only if it’s trucks, girls and grindcore…
  
  3, definitively.

  Mack trucks or Volvo?
  
  Vote for 3.

  Hi Peter,
  I wanted to pick the option 1 but was not able to find the list of topics? Can you point it out please
  Thanks.

  I don’t have a list of topics available yet for option 1. Guillaume has offered to do a talk and demo on Gaelyk, which I’d be quite interested in. I’m waiting to hear back from someone on what talks were originally submitted for the conference but didn’t make it for whatever reason.

  Hey Sebastien. Got you covered on the Worthingtons/Boddingtons front! #3 for me!

  2 sounds useful to see what people are using grails for and any problems they hit / overcome. I also like option 3.
  
  Option 4 is obligatory i would of thought.

  If 2 is chosen Glenn & I would be happy to talk about the Sky Entertainment project for 10-15 minutes.

  Admittedly a bit selfish, but I would be crazy to pass on your offer #3.
  Perhaps it might lead to more involvement too.

  Whilst I obviously won’t be able to attend, I was thinking perhaps (given the pending 1.2 release) a overview of whats new and whats changed from 1.1 to 1.2
  
  Perhaps something migration centric… ? Could turn out to be quite a helpful resource to those out there who haven’t yet upgraded Grails (the majority I would have thought)… just my 2p/c
