I haven't been able to attend the first ruhrJUG meeting for personal reasons, but it looks as if it had been off to a good start. Maybe too good since the room was too crowded - making the organizers ask people to register upfront if they plan to attend in the future.
The next three talks are already scheduled with Eberhard Wolf talking about Spring 3 (I've seen his talk at the rheinjug so I'll probably skip this one), Marc Guillemot talking about Canoo WebTest (this isn't that Java specific) and Stefan Tilkov talking about JAX-RS.
In addition the ruhrJUG is starting what they call "Open Monday" - some loose gathering of people interested in Java and/or Open Source with the first event taking place next Monday. Apparently there'll be a CAcert-Party (whatever that is). I wonder if there would be enough interest in a PGP singing party - if so I'd be willing to organize things.
The rheinjug has scheduled a talk by Nils Wloka about using Spring (and AspectJ) to build rich domain models this month.
