Resource adapters at JavaOne

At JavaOne 2006 I gave the presentation "Developing J2EE Connector Architecture Resource Adapters". I did that together with Sivakumar Thyagarajan. He works in Sun's Bangalore office.

That he works there, while I work in Monrovia California... that's one of the interesting things about working at Sun: it's very international. Sun has people in all corners of the world. Last week I was on a phone call with perhaps 20 other people, and 12 of them were from other countries.

I talked to Sivakumart a few times on the phone before JavaOne, but met him only face to face for the first time at JavaOne. That's also one of the nice things about JavaOne: you get to meet people face to face you otherwise only talk with on the phone.

The presentation went pretty well, and the audience agreed: at the end of the presentation all audience members can fill in an evaluation form. Here are the feedback results

	Overall quality	Speakers
Our presentation	4.32	4.28
Average at JavaOne	3.99	3.90
