I too enjoyed Devoxx very much. Which you'd know since we went there together. ;-) Anyway, apart from the talks you mentioned, I visited two session on Adobe Flex: <ul> <li><a href="http://www.devoxx.com/display/DV09/Spring+ActionScript" rel="nofollow">Spring ActionScript</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.devoxx.com/display/DV09/Test-driven+development+in+Flex" rel="nofollow">Test driven development in Flex</a></li> </ul> The speakers were not the experienced speakers of some of the other slots, but they knew their stuff. It's also a refreshing change when you <em>don't</em> get annoyed by generic presentations with American jokes in them. ;-) In any case, both presentations showed me how some of the practices we've learned to love in the Java space can be applied to the Flex domain. Looking forward to trying some of that stuff out for myself! And already looking forward to Devoxx 2010... @Andrew: Nice write-up of Devoxx! I too enjoyed Devoxx very much.
