London Java Community Unconference

I just wanted to let you know about a ConCom approved event in London,  
UK this month. There will be an Apache Way talk and a few ASF projects  
will be there. Maybe your projects should be too?

As you may already have seen the London Java Community (LJC) are  
running their June Unconference is association with the ASF.  The LJC  
represent about 1000 Java developers from the London (UK) area, LJC  
members have various levels of understanding of open source and recent  
LJC events suggest that they are keen to learn more.

Apache is such a major player in the open source world but (incredible  
though it may seem) some people in the Java world still equate Apache  
with the http server project and have no understanding of the breadth,  
scope and culture of the ASF. In suggesting the unconference  
partnership the organisers goal is provide Apache committers with a  
platform and a different audience to the ones that already attend  
things like ApacheCon and to provide LJC members with an opportunity  
to gain a much broader understanding of the ASF.

The unconference organisers would be delighted to welcome anyone who  
can talk about any aspect of the ASF on June the 26th The sign up  
details are here:
