I’ll also be attending Ignite - Chicago. This is not the music festival, but a series of geeky 5 minute talks with about 20 slides. This is just my style, the length of the talk matching the length of my patience. My talk is entitled “Controlling Java with Perl”, and I’ll be covering many of the same topics related to build management I cover in my blog. I see O’Reilly Publishing’s name on the web page, so maybe they have something to do with it. Already there are 98 people planning to attend. Like the Windy City Hackathon, if you are planning to attend, please drop me a line – I’ll buy you a beer.
