After this lockdown time, a road-trip to the #GardenRoute will be just the thing. And why not combine it with #JWild 28 to 30 October, in Wilderness, South Africa. Bring the family along. wilderness-software.com/jwild-2020/ #unconference #software #java #roadtrip

And of course more details to be found here: wilderness-software.com/jwild-2020/

The new date for #JWild 2020 is (drum-roll please): 28 to 30 October (with an optional #hackergarten event Sat 31 Oct). Still happening at the beautiful Fairy Knowe Hotel on the Touws river in Wilderness, South Africa #software #unconference #gardenroute

@mikro2nd Oops, it is indeed. That was meant to be 28 - 30 Oct, with 31 Oct for the (optional) #hackergarten.

As we are postponing #JWild, we want to test our tentative dates. If you think you want to come to an awesome software unconference in South Africa, let us know what dates work best. (with #hackergarten day after conference). See wilderness-software.com/jwild-2020/

A reminder that @heinzkabutz will talk about "Enough java.lang.String to hang ourselves" at tonight's #CTJC event at 18:00 SAST (16UTC), and he is giving away free copies of his Data Structures course to all who attend.

#JWild update: after talking to confirmed attendees, we decided to rather postpone JWild to later this year, around Sep/Oct/Nov — keep an eye out for details. We are still committed to having a great unconference in the #gardenroute in 2020. This beach is waiting for you..

Hi everyone who already registered for #JWild - please check your email for a very important email where we need your input.

"It feels like software design is becoming a rushed step at best, or in some cases even a forgotten craft, and at JWild we would like to give it decent attention. " Come discuss this & many other interesting topics at #JWild. A few spaces still available. wilderness-software.com/jwild-2020/

We had a great meeting with Fairy Knowe Hotel and excited about the main conference room for #JWild. Of course nothing prevents us from using outside spaces next to river for discussions as well. Is your place booked?

@aalmiray @christhalinger @JalapenoUnconf @Twitter Hmm, maybe we must move #JWild to November next year ... less contention. And a beautiful time of year here as well.. 🤔

@christhalinger @JalapenoUnconf Apparently @twitter does not allow ‘ñ’ as part of the account name identifier. Shame.

@JavaAfrica is looking for 3 people to help select topics for I Code Java 2020. 1 Person for Java track and 2 for Kotlin/Mobile track. Each will get free access to the ICJ2020 conference IN July. Please contact the Organizer on info@j-sa.co

It is now official that we will host a #hackergarten event Saturday 25th of April, i.e. the day after #JWild ends. Those attending are all invited to come play with code. Updated info on wilderness-software.com/jwild-2020/ and more on hackergarten.net

And for those wanting a bit more comprehensive introduction, here is a few years old, but still very practical, explanation by Bruce Eckel: youtube.com/watch?v=aD3S0w…

At #JWild in April we will follow an 'Open Spaces' approach. What does this mean? Here is a brief explainer video: youtube.com/watch?v=M_jhcv…

@hermanlintvelt Book your place now at qkt.io/jwild2020 to join in the discussion about excursions and topics, or visit wilderness-software.com/jwild-2020/ for more information.

@hermanlintvelt Ooh! What goodies do we have in mind? Canoeing, beautiful hikes, lagoon cruise, gamedrive, some great dinner spots. O, and relaxing on the beach. Of course only after a hard day of #softwaredesign and #java and other interesting topics.

Just finished a planning meeting for @JWildUnconf excursions. Looking forward to sharing the #gardenroute with everyone attending #JWild in April.

@aalmiray We wonder if one can experiment with a micro-#hackergarten at #JWild in April. Would love your input in that. Greetings to #jfokus.

Goooog morning #jfokus! I love the smell of Open Source in the morning. Come join us at the #hackergarten today!

There's still tickets left for @devconfza - get yours now to avoid disappointment. Cape Town and Johannesburg. 5 Tracks, 40 speakers. Build your network, expand your knowledge AND get some awesome snacks!
