Apache are looking for talks at next summer's European ApacheCon.
There's a big EU presence in the dev and user groups, so I'm sure we can
put together some talks. Indeed, I think we ought to, otherwise the
conference is full of Maven presentations, and while I value them (esp.
Jason's), I dont want the world to forget that ant still has market
dominance of the java build problem.
1. If we can get Xavier to introduce Ivy, that would be great.
2. Having given the Ant 1.7 talk in 2005 (!) I could either give an
update, or focus on something more esoteric, like 'scripting and testing'
3. Maybe its someone else's time to give a presentation. That way I get
to sit in the audience making faces instead of having Stefan and Jan do
the same for me.
