COBOL is still being used in a lot of places :-)
Yes, I've heard this too, along with thumbscrews, the rack and the iron maiden. The things we developers put up with to keep legacy systems running...
If I could I would go to this conference to attend only ola bini and craig mclanahan's session (there might be a few more good speakers but I'm familiar with these two) , these guys are very talented developers have written a lot of open source software and are not the typical "coporate" programmers
I'd like to point out that both names that you mention should be on the watch list of any 'corporate' CTO with half a brain. Struts is running in a significant portion of the enterprise, and everyone who has to maintain those apps now after a few years of bug-fixes wishes they could switch to something simpler without causing too much of a controversy - hence JRuby (you can safely describe JRuby to any suit who asks as Java, but with more class, right?).

Does that make sense?

Best,
Sidu.

Hi Vishal,
Here is my personal take on it as far as "bring python closer to corporate guys" I do not want to change the whole world to use my favorite programming language instead I will find one who uses it and work for them *If I really wanted* to develop only in that X language.

Programming languages are just tools and each of them they have their own place (COBOL is still being used in a lot of places :-) ) even if you think and know there are better ways to do it. Companies like IBM are there in this business from a very long time and there are a lot of smart people working there and they are doing what is probably the best for them. I have had to personally develop in many languages (java included), so If I could I would go to this conference to attend only ola bini and craig mclanahan's session (there might be a few more good speakers but I'm familiar with these two) , these guys are very talented developers have written a lot of open source software and are not the typical "coporate" programmers , they would fit into any developer conference .

Thanks for getting me to post to this list though :-).

    Hi,

    I received this invite to the Great Indian Developer summit.

    The four day long summit focuses on .NET, Java, Web and other things.

    I am wondering why there is nothing related to Python in this
    conference. Is corporate computing still only about .NET, Java and
    Web with ColdFusion/AIR etc.

    Given the fact that almost everything that is discussed here can
    be achieved in Python, what should be done to bring Python closer
    to the Corporate guys.

    What can be done about this at our end? I remember having read
    that Java became 'Java' not just because of the VM concept but
    also because of the aggressive marketing that SUN did for it.

    what you say?


    Thanks and best regards,
    Vishal Sapre
