A number of Derby people have expressed interest in getting together
the week of Java One. I'm thinking that people may be busy attending
sessions during Java One itself, so it might be better to meet the first
day before the Java One sessions start. That would be the Community One
day (Monday, May 5). However, that may be an awkward day for some people
for other reasons.
I'm leaning toward Monday May 5. I'm also leaning toward a
bring-your-own-lunch format as we've done before with Derby developer
get-togethers. Let me know if lunchtime (say 11:30 onward) that day
sounds good to you.
Thanks,

I suspect that a lot of Derby users and developers will be in San
Francisco for Java One this year (May 6-9,
http://java.sun.com/javaone/sf/). This would be a great opportunity to
get together, connect faces with names, and generally talk about what
we're all doing and what we want out of Derby in the future. This
doesn't have to be anything formal. We could just grab sandwiches and
meet some place. Let the community know if you're interested. Based on
how much interest there is, we can brainstorm about where to meet and
when.
I'm going to post a similar message to derby-dev and direct them to
this thread so that we have a single conversation about this.
