Jenkins User Conference SF and JavaOne 2012
Despite plans on no more conferences this year earlier I ended up presenting about Sonatype Insight for CI at the Jenkins User Conference in SF and help with the Sonatype booth and customers at JavaOne. And my short feedback quote even ended on the conference blog as the top quote. Winston and Duncan presented about Hudson best practices with my input for the slides that you should check out as well. And last but not least if you want to find out more you should join us at the upcoming VIJUG meeting – Java One Debrief.

Fireside chats at AnDevCon 2011
As you might or might not know I am going to present about using Apache Maven for Android development (306) as well as testing Android applications (406) at the upcoming first Android developer conference AnDevCon happening in March 2011 in San Francisco. Since preparation for that is not enough work I am running a fireside chat meeting for Android community leaders as well as Android development tooling interested people. Attendance is free so if you are around the conference or even just in San Francisco you should sign up meet some of your peers there.
I look forward to meeting many new faces and a lot of fun.
Manfred
