The things I enjoyed about this year’s open space conference.

• Just the enthusiasm and the luck of the draw about being there again.
• It was heart warming and uplifting to be part of the action
• Meeting this year’s new people
• Getting reacquainted with the previous JPR11 attendees
• Diane Marsh’s Scala Koans
• Sitting on Bruce Eckel’s easy massaging chair again and meeting Bruce again
• Making a video recording of the closing session
• Having the time to make screen cast of JavaFX 2.0 EA
• Kate Ice House
• The  Progressive Dinner
• Doing a Technical Leadership session
• 4 half days snowboarding

The things I regret about JPR11

• I did not meet and greet every single individual
• Missing the Make It Fast technical session
• Missing my own Future of Client Java session
• Not getting the Saturday flight for an extra snowboarding Sunday
• Not knowing if I can make it back next year, and not having that ideal Job / Position

So heart warming. Thank you all participants at the Java Posse Round Up 2011. Everyone was great there. My heart swells with pride. It was an unbelievable and unmissable.
