[OKC JUG] Tulsa Tech Fest

[David Walker]

Hi Ryan,

No problem. That was about the excitement level for a Java track at
tonight's Tulsa JUG meeting as well. :)

I don't know why. Has the JUG scene lost steam? I know JUG's used to be the
larger, more powerful development community.

The main thing I stressed at that point, Tulsa TechFest 2.0 has something
for the Java guys, in the heavy Agile, Project Management side of things
as a minimum. We have 1 session on Spring.NET :)

Thanks for spreading the word.

My goal is for TechFest 3.0 to have the Tulsa JUG and OKC-JUG work together
(as a minimum) and have a kick-butt Java track. Maybe get the Joplin JUG
involved and any others we can find.

So, let's start planning early next time.

Sincerely,
David Walker
