Java Posse #065 - Interviews from Topcoder and Java One

Previously Un-Aired Interviews from Topcoder and Java One Fully formatted shownotes can always be found at http://javaposse.com - This is a pair of previously un-aired interviews. The first was recorded by Joe, Carl and Dick at TopCoder with Ari Balogh, Vice President of Engineering for Verisign Inc. It is a short but technically meaty interview. The second was a wrap-up of Java One with John and Melinda Weathers of NewEnergy Associates (co-workers of Dick) about their experiences at what was their first Java One. The quality of both interviews is a product of the recording location - the first, while clear, has a certain amount of background noise, since it was recorded in the TopCoder arena. The second was recorded in a San Francisco hotel after Java One and the sounds of the San Francisco streets is quite prominent. Treat these as adding a little ambience to the interviews :-). There is a Java meetup in London that Simon Brown is organizing - for details check his blog http://www.simongbrown.com/blog/2006/06/29/london_java_meetup.html Verisign Home Page http://www.verisign.com/ Design By Contract http://archive.eiffel.com/doc/manuals/technology/contract/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_by_contract http://jcontractor.sourceforge.net/ Aspect Oriented Programming http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspect-oriented_programming http://www.voelter.de/data/articles/aop/aop.html http://www.eclipse.org/aspectj/ NewEnergy Associates - A Siemens Company that John and Melinda (and Dick) work for http://newenergyassoc.com The Java Posse would like to thank Libsyn.com - http://www.libsyn.com - for hosting and bandwidth Brice Ruth and Webprojkt.com - http://webprojkt.com - for our archives site - http://archives.javaposse.com Feedburner.com - http://www.feedburner.com - for feed redirect Kirsty Doherty for Java Posse artwork Nick Trefz, the voice of TopCoder, for the voiceovers Theme Music: Opening - "Java" the parody song Copyright 1997 Broken Records and Marjorie Music Publ.
