I'd love to see "Python and Java BOF", and maybe one on CORBA. If we
could hornswaggle Jim Hugunin or Barry Warsaw to talk a bit, that would be
great. Whoa -- just found Jim's JPython slides[1]. For the
record, his talk at JavaOne was excellent -- thanks!
Basically, Java can bite me, but it has tons of libraries, everything
talks to it, and it has local fatass support. Switching to JPython sounds
like a win/win, and I need to prove it.
CORBA I havent messed with since Fnorb used to be unstable, I'd love to
hear how it's changed.
