This is a reminder of the the upcoming TriJUG March meeting. Details are below. -Chris ========================================================== http://trijug.org/ OUR NEXT MEETING IS March 19, 2007 Triangle Java Users Group Presents: Abusing Maven For Fun and Profit : (Near) Zero-Admin Deployments presented by Brian Sletten Monday, March 19, 2007 6:30 PM - 9:00 PM 4001 E. Chapel Hill-Nelson Highway Research Triangle Park, North Carolina Abstract: Ok, I can't promise you profit, but hopefully you'll have fun. Maven 2 introduces a number of new features (including that performance feature) that make it a swell project management tool for development. Come hear about how we can abuse Maven to manage distributed deployment scenarios before the Modules JSR is done. This talk will introduce Maven 2 and what it has to offer as a team-oriented development and project management tool. Then we will take a strange turn and discuss how the MavenEmbedder API can be used as a lightweight, low-admin deployment mechanism for self-updating, distributed Java installations. This is a very example-driven talk. We'll look at lots of code but you'll be able to walk away with a fresh take on how to roll out a new versions of entire applications, bug fixes, security patches or new features with very little effort.
