O grande evento desta semana foi o 5º encontro anual Groovy & Grails eXchange na Skills Matter em Londres. Com 2 pistas e mais de 20 sessões muito se passou, e tendo pistas concorrentes significou fazer escolhas difíceis sobre qual a sessão a assistir. Mas felizmente Skills Matter é muito boa a gravar sessões e estava a disponibilizá-las em tempo de gravação anunciando a publicação da maior parte das sessões logo na sessão seguinte. Naveguem pelas descrições das sessões no horário da conferência para aceder a cada um dos videos.

A conferência do próximo ano já foi anunciada; vai ser nos dias 12 e 13 de Dezembro. Os primeiros 50 bilhetes custam apenas £95, de que é que estão à espera?

A minha sessão foi uma sessão intermédia/avançada sobre o plugin Spring Security – podem vê-la aqui e ver o respetivo post no blog onde estão os slides e a aplicação de demonstração.

Como em qualquer conferência houve muita atividade no Twitter; aqui estão alguns dos tweets que achei mais interessantes:

@russel_winder: @pledbrook Lunch meeting in the garden at Barbican GGeX 2007 kicked off #Gradle. I know I was there. #grailsx #ggx
@rfletcherEW: Enterprise software “has much to do with pathology” – @hans_d at #grailsx #ggx
@dsommerville_nw: Amazed by undocumented #spock ‘optimizeRunOrder’ which can run tests most likely to fail *first* to minimise feedback loop! #grailsx
@antony: What sort of party are we going to have when we hit 1k plugins? http://t.co/uBxBP4r5 #grailsx
@epragt: #grailsx Don’t use #hibernate update — Tip: indeed, use ‘validate’ instead!
@epragt: #grailsx #wtf = web, twitter and forum @pledbrook
@russel_winder: A few thoughts on my session at #grailsx yesterday http://t.co/ho8CxbGe #ggx
@epragt: If you need to force your developers to write tests, you might have the wrong developers in your team… #grailsx
@wmacgyver: Didn’t know about @Field in #groovy 1.8 for scripting http://t.co/xh6TCH47 #grailsx
@dsommerville_nw: Really liking simplicity of #ratpack for developing lightweight RESTful webapps using #groovy and templating http://t.co/2MqoVxBG #grailsx
@darthvader42: didn’t know about the #gradle dsl reference guide http://t.co/DobzpXcY #grailsx
@epragt: Graeme Rocher really cares for the community, he even got dressed especially to be on the webcam with the audience. Limitless! #grailsx
@dsommerville_nw: Betamax: #groovy port of VCR from ruby; real HTTP connections are captured and played back as canned responses in tests #grailsx
@paulfairless: Remind me again why we’re not using the fixture and build-test-data plugins #grailsx
@rfletcherEW: After #grailsx @smaldini finds the best place to sit in London http://t.co/OqS2dYkq
@epragt: Sorry #grails people for messing up the demo, but the Groovy Android Console works again! http://t.co/SMxtKKKP
@marcinerdmann: Almost home after a great #grailsx. Thank you everyone, #groovy is as much about technology as about people. See you next year!
@ldaley: Completely and utterly exhausted after Groovy & Grails Exchange 2011. So many great talks and so many great people. #grailsx
@tomaslin: Cloud Foundry t-shirts from #grailsx say ‘You bet your PAAS it’s open’ on the back. Not sure I will be wearing it those to client meetings.

p.s. este é o primeiro aniversário desta série de posts – Eu sei que é comum dizê-lo mas, nem acredito que já passou um ano.
