At the Jini Community Meeting

Live at the 8th Jini Community Meeting at The Brewery in London; listening to Jan Newmarch of Monash University talking about a variety of Jini based projects at Monash.

(Sign of the times: 90% of the laptops here are Macs....)

Bizarre stuff: hearing references to Geoff Arnold that resolve not to me but to the other Geoff Arnold (who's not here).

Bob Scheifler is now presenting the changes and new features for the next Porter release of Jini. Cool stuff.

Update: After the coffee break, Dennis Reedy is talking about Rio, the policy-based service provisioning framework based on Jini.

there is another Geoff Arnold? Do tell. I am fascinated by the idea of wandering into your clone, yet he doesn't recognize me.

I once formed a virtual club of people with the same name as I (first and last only .. I didn't want to limit myself too much). one contact was spookily similar .. both of us were born in the same city, ended up in high tech, etc. we haven't yet met in person.
