 Hey all,
 
 I suggest that a few people step up to volunteer to make JakartaOne
 happen
 because it isn't going to happen all by itself. :-) Maybe even setup
 another
 mailing list to do planning on so that people who are interested in
 planning
 can join it and discuss things. If people are going to speak, a call for
 papers needs to go out, etc...
 
 As far as I'm concerned with StudioZ, I think we have agreed that
 Tuesday
 the 26th is the day, but I still need a decision for the time's that the
 event will happen for.
 
 Good question - day or night?  Which implies less conflict with things
 people want to see/do at JavaOne?
 
 Maybe both? Daytime could be a bit more formal  organised and night time
 could be more adhoc  beery ;)

Why am I not surprised you specifically noted that specific beverage  :)

My only concern is that I since it appears to be a short schlep, you can't
just run over from java1 to jak1 and back - it sounds like you would have to
commit to go and stay..

I don't have a solution though.

 
 Last year was my first JavaOne and I found most of the stuff in the day in
 the first day or two to be miss-able - its usually the evening sessions or
 stuff later in the week that were most fun.
 

Ok - that was my experience as well - maybe we can bank on that this year...
I'll try to find some schedule info first...

 Are the schedules available yet?
 
 I'm happy to do the call for presentations if I can get two others to help
 me select if there are too many.  I assume we'll take all that we can fit
 into the allotted time, but with more than one person, we can judiciously
 select if we have to.
 
 I'll gladly help.

Excellent!  Need one more.
