Qi4j presentation on 2 April

[Niclas Hedhman <ni...@hedhman.org>]

I am currently in Romania, and local Java User Group on Thursday, limited
to 200 seats. There was a poll to see which *two* of
   * Apache Software Foundation - How does it work?
   * Apache Incubator - How to get a project into Apache?
   * Qi4j - Composite Oriented Programming
   * Commercialization of Open Source

that I should talk about, and >75% gave one of the votes on Qi4j.

I will brush up the talk from Shanghai Apache Roadshow 2011 (?), and *any
ideas to pique the interest* to get involved in this audience is
appreciated.


Cheers

It went quite well. Since I have run 4-5 of these previously, I think I
sensed fewer exploded heads in the audience, and even some rather clever
questions, such as;

   I didn't mention what happens if more than one Mixin implements the same
method. "Will there be an error?"

   "What's the difference between Composite Oriented Programming and the
Composite/Facade in GangOfFour patterns?"

   "What are the future plans for messaging integration?"

   "What kind of metrics can be extracted?" (I mentioned a metrics SPI is
being worked on)

And some people came up afterwards and want more/deeper presentations again
in the future, and I suggested we do a small workshop on my next trip, to
give those who are interested a bit of hands-on.

A few slides were changed, I will upload Keynote/PDF later.

Looks like it was Shanghai Apache Roadshow 2010 :)
cf. http://qi4j.org/2010/08/30/apache-roadshow-shanghai.html

The code-first approach, opposed to a theory-first approach, seems good
for a talk. The few I did here in France for small groups years ago
worked well that way. Before reading your 2010 report I tried the
theory-first approach and got people sleeping pretty quick...

I think Qi4j core alone has what's needed to pique the interest of
developpers.
