Opening Day... My Top Five Session Picks
I'm really looking forward to the opening keynote tomorrow, and getting this year's conference started. It's been great already running into many familiar faces (some of which you only see once a year at JavaOne) around the Moscone Center and San Francisco.
On the Eve - Jini Meetup at the Bear (Mon 8pm)

Hey EuroOSCON! We're planning on leaving the place "messy"!
[As background: Brussels is 'the place to be' the next couple of weeks... the
10th Jini Community Meeting" is underway and taking place September 13th and 14th.
"Will the slides be available?"
One great improvement at this year's conference (at least for me)... is the availability of presentations online.
