The GR8 in the US conference, a conference dedicated to the software
language Groovy, software development frameworks Grails and Griffon,
and related technology, is now accepting presentation proposals. This
one day event covers Groovy, Grails, Griffon and other GR8
technologies. There will be four concurrent tracks, both presentations
and workshops, two guest speakers (see below), a panel session, and a
Meet the Speakers happy hour. The conference will be held April 16th,
2010 at the Holiday Inn Bloomington I-35W, 1201 West 94th Street,
Bloomington, MN 55431., to be held April 16th, 2010 Submit your
presentation/workshop proposals to http://www.gr8conf.org/proposal/create.
The conference keynote speaker will be Guillaume Laforge, the project
lead of Groovy, the highly popular and successful dynamic language for
the JVM. He co-authored Manning's best seller "Groovy in Action" with
Dierk König, and is working for SpringSource (a division of VMWare)
where he's working full time on cool and Groovy stuff. Guillaume
worked hand in hand with the Google App Engine Java team before the
official launch of the new platform to ensure that Groovy would run
well on this new cloud. With this background in mind, he created
Gaelyk, a lightweight toolkit for developing applications written in
Groovy on Google App Engine, that he demonstrated at the Google I/O
2009 Conference. You can meet Guillaume at conferences around the
world where he evangelizes the Groovy dynamic language, Domain-
Specific Languages in Groovy, and the agile Grails web framework.
The conference keynote speaker will be Dr. Venkat Subramaniam, founder
of Agile Developer, Inc. Dr. Subramaniam has trained and mentored
thousands of software developers in US, Canada, Europe, and Asia. He
helps his clients succeed with Agile Development and various software
technologies. He is a frequent invited speaker at various
international software conferences. He's author of .NET Gotchas
(O'Reilly), co-author of the 2007 Jolt Productivity Award winning book
Practices of an Agile Developer, and author of Programming Groovy:
Dynamic Productivity for the Java Developer and Programming Scala (all
from Pragmatic Bookshelf).
