DJUG Tonight: Google Maps and Struts 2
If you're in the Denver area, tonight's DJUG should be a good one. Scott Davis is presenting on how to Roll your own Google Maps and I'm talking about Migrating from Struts 1 to Struts 2. I've seen Scott's presentation and it's very good. He explains the basics of CSS and JavaScript so even if you're new to web stuff, you won't be lost.
The nice thing about being the main speaker is I can almost guarantee that the talk will finish on time, pending questions and answers of course. With any luck, we'll be at the Rock Bottom by 8:30. Here's the current agenda:
5:30-6 p.m. Food and Networking
6-7 p.m. Basic Concepts
7-7:15 p.m. Break and Announcements
7:15-8:15 p.m. Main Meeting
8:15-8:30 p.m. Questions and Answers
8:30 p.m. Door Prizes
Update: Download Migrating from Struts 1 to Struts 2 (PDF, 4.7 MB).
