2007 OSCON Presentations Available

Jul 28, 2007 in Java, Open Source Software, Ruby, citations

I was pretty keen on attending this years OSCON in Portland but it unfortunately didn’t fit into the conference budget.

It’s never really a replacement for attending but a good majority of the presentations this year are now available (as PDFs) here.

I haven’t looked at many yet but there appear to be some fairly interesting talks regarding Java. Not to mention general programming and open-source goodness (ie. Databases Don’t Matter or Nested Data Parallelism in Haskell).

Maybe next year!
