concerned: Yep, Adobe will be presenting on Apollo at Desktop Matters. RE: off-topic and all that. We’re interested in a bunch of tech subjects, including Ajax and Desktop. We’re not losing interest in Ajax. However, my involvement in the Java Desktop community goes back further than Ajax and we thought it was high time to try and bring that community together at an event.

Ian: We’ll see. :-)

Will you be holding a similiar contest to get a pass into the Ajax Experience? (dont worry, I’m not submitting any more “different strokes” themed essays).

I have to admit that was an awesome experience last year and I can personally say that it means a lot to the rank and file grunt developers that just can’t afford to do it on their own.

any plans for discussing Apollo at “Desktop Matters”?

have to say, it seems to be a bit off topic that you guys would be launching off into desktop, when you’ve been trying to progress the web-centric point of view. But I guess you’re just trying to grow your breadth.

But why not focus deeper on the web paradigm? A bit concerning, esp when there is so many good things happening and maturing with Ajax. There are plenty of resources out there, hopefully you guys will keep pursuing this one.
