Hiya!

I'd be happy to join the JUG there! We cover our own expenses so no 
worries! How much does the food/drinks cost? I may be able to help out 
there too.

After new year would be fantastic! I have particular focus on 
Kubernetes, gRPC, and Microservices.

If the audience has not seen Kubernetes, I'd love to show that too in 
one of the sessions.

Abstracts for both:

gRPC:

Kubernetes:

Cheers,

    Hello, Ray. At JavaOne (and a bit on Twitter), we discussed the
    possibility of you coming out to the Oklahoma City JUG and giving a
    presentation over something gRPC-related. I'd like to get the ball
    rolling on that and see if we can work out details on if and when.

    I will say up front, in case that makes things easier ;), that we don't
    really have any sort of travel budget, as we rely heavily on donations
    from area businesses, and that pretty much covers facilities and food.
    :) We've recently moved under the umbrella of a local tech non-profit
    (http://www.techlahoma.org/) that *might* be able to offer something
    like, but I wouldn't bet the bank on it. :) We can offer free food,
    though. :)

    So, if that doesn't close the door on a visit, I'd love to find a time
    that works for you sometime after the new year. We're really not very
    picky on topics, but I know I'd love to see some more of gRPC in action.
    The quick demo you gave at J1 was really exciting, and I'd love to hear
    more from an expert. :) That said, I'm perfectly happy letting you pick
    whatever's got you the most excited at the moment.

    At any rate, I've rambled long enough. Talk to your people about it, and
    we'll go from there. :)

    Many thanks!
