Re: [jug-discussion] OT: Google and Yahoo
Actually, in one of the in-person meetings recently, I believe we "officially" decided to allow a wider-than-just-java focus for the group. We even took minutes, and I think there's a screenshot or notes somewhere on the confluence wiki. I'm don't have time to find it now, but it doesn't matter. Since that was the the consensus at the in-person meeting, I would think that applies to the lurkers and out-of-towners too. It's fine for the group to get off topic sometimes, and definitely OK to discuss non-java technical stuff. If anyone disagrees with this, please speak up now, since you didn't at the in-person meeting (or at least weren't in the majority who did, there may have been a dissenter or two). Personally, I don't even do much Java anymore, except hacking on open source tools I use to do my Ruby work. However, I still am a member of this group, though, AND still attend most of the in-person meetings, AND occasionally present to the 2-6 other people who show up, just because I like the people and diversity, occasional insightful post, and beer. -- Chad On 9/21/06, Michael Oliver <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Ok since any sort of frivolity is frowned upon by some, let's get serious.

I'm wondering if there are any regulations that deal with this issue in the JCP or whether the JUG term is an entirely public-domain all-purpose term that can be utilized by any party. I would assume that if there are no such regulations then either 1) JUGs will likely degrade in relevance( a process already in effect ), 2) such regulations will be imposed in the future.

Re: [jug-discussion] OT: Google and Yahoo
Jon, I think all your statements are valid here. Remember, I was initially asking a question. I am certainly not looking to criticize the relationships between list members, but please keep in mind that having an official and functional resource for local Java developers makes everyones life a little bit easier, and contributes to all of our collective worth.

Re: [jug-discussion] OT: Google and Yahoo
What we all need is more people who take themselves too seriously. This group is what it is. I'm sure that most of us have worked together at some point and understand each others capacities and interests and I have seen some great and merited discussions on this list. I've also seen political statements from some but that goes with the territory. Part of what makes being a developer in this town fun is the cross pollination and varying interests and experiences of colleagues which is why I value the list and the people on it. I know in a heartbeat I could go to many of these listers with a question and get a good defended answer, and I appreciate that it keeps us talking even when Erik moves to Virginia or Nick to Cali. But the last thing we need is another special interest group that takes itself too seriously IMHO And I love Beavis and Butthead references but I prefer Family Guy (and in many ways I think that taste is pretty consistent across Java nerds).

Re: [jug-discussion] OT: Google and Yahoo
Sorry Mr. Zeidner, informal developer-related commentary is indeed inappropriate content for a USERS GROUP. In fact, I have seen on this list that at certain JUG meetings, discussion on non-Java technologies have been discussed. Everyone needs to get back to working on corporate project #101 immediately. And make sure it's written in Java(tm). I'll go back to lurking again.
