          San Jose Rules Fest Oct 2010</a>. It's a 3 day event of talks
        followed by a one day Boot Camp with separate rooms for Jess,
        Drools&amp;jBPM, Grind Works and Open Rules. You may attend the
        talks or the bootcamps or both.<br>
        <br>
        The Boot Camp will spend the morning introducing the 4 Drools
        technologies: Expert, Fusion, Flow and Guvnor and will
        additionally cover what's new in Drools 5.1. We will also
        discuss the plans for jBPM3, jBPM4 and Drools Flow. The
        afternoon will be an open floor where you can get time with us
        core developers for any questions, mentoring or assistance that
        you would like.<br>
