          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>
    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>

             Hey people,

          </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>
