JavaPolis is over. It was great fun. Instead of enumerating all presentations, let it suffice to say that I saw a lot of ex-collegues and even ex-collegue-college-students (nice surprise, as I wasn't really prepared for this), and that I enjoyed talking to each one of them. I did miss a few opportunities to go and shake hands with people I only know from online stuff (blogs, ...), but I still feel a bit awkward to step up to them and say "hi, I read your blog." Some people define this as "beta male behaviour", as opposed to "alpha male behaviour". I guess I'm just too shy for this world.

Really only one thing to check out further: naked objects. Looks like fun to play around with. Not sure if it is useful for the medium- to big-sized projects though.
