Sling @ JavaZone 2009
I'm thinking of submitting a presentation on Sling at this year's
JavaZone in Oslo (http://www.java.no/javazone/2009/) in September.
This could give some publicity for the project, and potentially
attract new Sling users in Norway (not to mention a free ticket to the
conference and free beer in the speaker's lounge :).
For this, I have to submit an abstract before April 15.
I'll probably go with a presentation similar to Bertrand's at
ApacheCon EU - an introduction to Sling and the technologies it is
built on, and a demo of some cool stuff you can do with sling (like
the blogging app).
Does anyone have any particular subject wishes for what should be
included in the presentation?

Giving more exposure to Sling's JSON storage/retrieval features might
be good - next time I give a Sling presentation I'll probably refocus
my message a bit:
-Sling uses JCR for storage (filesystem on steroids, hierarchy, rich
properties, WebDAV, observation, ...)
-Sling uses OSGi for modularity (even bundles in repository using jcrinstall)
-Sling can use scripts (many languages) or servlets to process HTTP
requests (show the nice URL decomposition)
-The Sling HTTP/JSON interface (including powerful search) enables
modern ajaxish applications
Feel free to reuse stuff for my presentation, of course.
