Hey all,<div><br></div><div>   Don&#39;t forget to register for Rules Fest 2010. As usual, we are holding a bootcamp there where we can share experiences between Drools users and developers. Last year the room was packed full, and we had a great meeting. </div>
<div><br></div><div>   Hope to meet you there in October. More details on the e-mail bellow and on the Drools blog:</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://blog.athico.com/2010/08/dont-forget-rulefest-october-2010.html">http://blog.athico.com/2010/08/dont-forget-rulefest-october-2010.html</a></div>
