Done speaking for awhile
I'm sitting in Julie's mom's house in West Palm right now, trying to report a little about this past week before I go offline for the weekend. If you're interested, you can read about my talks on AppFuse on my SourceBeat blog. The next time I speak about AppFuse it'll be in Colorado in June. I'm scheduled for the Denver JUG that month, and I've been asked to do Boulder's JUG as
well. I hope to use that week as a personal deadline for having Sitemesh and WebWork2 as options in AppFuse. I might not be able to pull it off though. I talked to the current owner of my new hobby and it sounds like I'll be driving the bus from
San Diego to Denver in the near future. It's got a brand new engine with plenty of power - which is enough inspiration fo me. I've asked my Dad and he sounded interested in joining me for Raible Road Trip #8. The first part of June seems like a great time to embark on this trip. Maybe I'll do it the week after my DJUG preso.
I definitely enjoyed the MySQL Conference, but it wouldn't have been the same without Anthony and Mark. BTW Mark - you need to start a blog. Mark had one session where he told us about 10 or so parameters that you can use to print out debugging information for MySQL's JDBC Driver. I asked him to send me his presentation so I could document them here, but I'm still waiting. It might be a while though - the MySQL company meeting is in Cancun all next week. Mark gets to work full-time out of his house and then lives it up whenever he
gets together with his co-workers. Rough life, eh?
Meeting Anthony was a real treat too. He's one of those no-computer-science-degree kind of guys (like Bruce and I), which always makes for fun
conversation. The only problem was I couldn't get him to shut up about Python and scripting my Actions all week long. It's like he's in some sort of Python/Beanshell cult or something.
Today, I skipped all conference sessions and opted for a day at Sea World with Julie, Abbie and Julie's
Mom Stephanie. It was a great time and Abbie was amazed by all the cool animals. Now I'm ready for
a sunny, family-filled, relaxing weekend in West Palm. I'll try to post some pictures if I get around to it.
