In this presentation from QCon San Francisco 2007, Java SE Client architect Chet Haase discusses Java SE 6, Update N/Consumer JRE, the goals and feature set for Java FX (e.g. media support, scene graph, HTML and mobile devices), and the current set of possible features for JDK 7 such as Java FX features, Swing-related JSRs (295 and 296), transparent/shaped windows, tiered compilation, closures and invoke-dynamic bytecode.
Watch Chet Haase on Java FX, Update N and JDK 7 (56 minutes).

I used to read about a feature that was supposed to come with the N/Consumer JRE that would allow a developer to create a stripped down version of the JRE that we could ship with our applications. *I'm not talking about applets* It really sucks to have to install a 80mb JRE to run a small utility application. I don't want to see any replies to this post with people talking the about download JRE features. I'm interested in targeting environments where downloads things from the internet to servers is not allowed. The only way to know that my application is going to work when intalled is to include a JRE.
Isn't it a little ironic that to view the presentation/screencast/video about JavaFX (a flash competitor) one needs a "flash player" :) ?
Thin client paradigm characterized by web applications is a kludge that needs to be repudiated. Old compromises are no longer needed and it's time to move the presentation tier to where it belongs.
In this presentation filmed during QCon 2007, Jeff Sutherland, the creator of Scrum, talks about his visit at Google to do an analysis of Google's first implementation of Scrum.
In this article, Bryon Jacob and Chris Berry introduce AtomServer, their implementation of a full-fledged Atom Store based on Apache Abdera, which is now available as open source.
It is easy to think that virtualization applies only to servers. In reality the recent resurgence of the concept is also being applied to networking, storage, and application infrastructure.
In this article, Stefan Tilkov explains some of the most common anti-patterns found in applications that claim to follow a "RESTful" design and suggests ways to avoid them.
In this article, Adrien Louis and Marc Dutoo discuss the differences and relative merits of using orchestration vs. routing in a typical ESB setup, and discuss various implementation options.
Wayne Lund discusses batch processing, Spring Batch objectives and features, scenarios for usage, Spring Batch architecture, scaling, example code, failures and retrying, and the future roadmap.
