The third JBoss Benelux User Group event will be in Rotterdam, on 29 February 2008. This event will be a bit different: the JBoss User Group is growing and our previous meeting room has become too small, so we arranged something special this time: we will meet in Paddy Murphy's Irish Pub in Rotterdam. Photos of the event are now on-line.

Date: Friday, 29 February 2008

Time: Arrive 1430-1530, presentations start 1530, finish 1900-1930.

Location: Paddy Murphy's, Rodezand 15, 3011 AM, Rotterdam (map)

Programme: The program will begin with 'JBoss Seam in Action'. Pete Muir, Seam Core Developer, will introduce Seam, its contextual programming model and its tight integration with
other frameworks such as Hibernate, jBPM (business process modelling) and RichFaces.

In the second presentation, Tom Baeyens, founder and lead for JBoss jBPM, will introduce the latest developments in the Process Virtual Machine project.

In the third presentation, Bart Schuller and Daan Hoogenboezem, from Lunatech Research, will explain what it was like getting started with jBPM on a real commercial project: what its learning curve is, and our practical experiences.

Meanwhile, Paddy Murphy's have a selection of beer to help you concentrate on every presentation (we recommend the Murphy's). Better yet, JBoss has kindly agreed to sponsor the event and pay the bar tab.

Register for this JBUG event if you would like to attend.
