Them's fighting words... I wasn't even trying to be entertaining... so far.

Quit waffling !!! Tell us what you really think!  ;-)

fyi - I think Mike Shorter replaced you (brett) in 'my book' as the most entertaining speaker we've had. The content wasn't as good though...

NO.

If the FAA wants to have java meetings/lunch and learns, etc., then they should set that up themselves. If the are so unmotivated to be doing that internally, why should we waste our time holding their hands?

It is not the responsibility of the JUG to make large Java organizations learn stuff. 

Willingness to come to a JUG is cost of entry.

MAYBE.
Once or twice, as a means of marketing. I don't think there's a lack of knowledge of the JUG but maybe there is. Or maybe there's a perception at the FAA that the JUGS do not offer any value.

YES
Got no reason to answer yes... I'm in a judgmental mood.

I'm wondering if we need to have a special meeting for the FAA people (at FT? or is there somewhere at the FAA it could be held?). From what I've heard, JSF is big there, so maybe Jason could do something....

Maybe there needs to be an FAA Jug? So many people at so many different buildings....

any thoughts?

Brian,

I work at FAA and I have been wanting to come to the JUG meetings but have not been able to since it's too far from here during lunch hour.  Yeah, I would greatly appreciate it if you would please have some meetings again at FT - I can try to get some guys interested to come to the meetings.

Thanks.
Reji
