Would you please clarify what kind of exercise you guys are
planing to do for the Drools Bootcamp?<br>
which level of Drools knowledge is required to attend the
bootcamp?<br>
Is it worth it for people who have been using Drools for some
time now?<br>
</font></font></blockquote></div>
The morning will be talks, for those that know Drools well, it will
mostly be what they know. The afternoon will be an open workshop,
this means people work through examples with us onhand to help.
There are also more experience people there who are already working
on their own projects and just want a bit of
mentoring/advice/insite, and often bring their code along with them.
Those people will probably just code away in the morning, with one
eye on the talks if anything interests them they haven't seen
before. The other type of person are those wanting to actually hack
on Drools internals adding news features.<br>
<br>
You get the most out of the Day if you know what it is you
specifically want and know how to ask it. What the day isn't is 8
hours of spoon fed step by step workshop tutorials that you would
get on a training course.<br>
<br>
In the past we used virtual machine images on a USB stick, but
setting that up always caused a lot of problems. So this year I
think we are going to provide bootable usb sticks with Fedora and
Drools ready to go, so people can work through examples and just
hack code.<br><font color="#888888">

Hey people,
<div><br>
</div>
<div> I am glad to see that people are registering for the
bootcamp (and the conference)! Hope to meet you all there!
If you've never been to Rules Fest before (this is the 3rd
year it is happening), it is the only technical, no-fluff,
conference in Rules Engines and related technologies that I
know of. I had a great time last 2 years and I know it will
not be different this year.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> And for those that did not registered yet, just a
reminder, the early bird discount ends today as per the
e-mail bellow.</div>

<p> Rules Fest 2010 offers a number
of hands-on tutorial and coding
sessions known as "bootcamps."
These events give all developers —
from novice to advanced — a chance
to learn new technologies and/or
techniques while being coached by
those who know them well. All
bootcamps are a full day, and they
run concurrently on Thursday,
October 14th, the day after the
main conference ends.</p>
