I encourage you to enrol and make the London edition of the Round Up truly terrific. <\/p>\n<p>Sadly, I am unlikely to make it to JPR UK 14 myself, because of the contracts that I am presently working on. I guarantee that you will learn a lot from other developers, designers and architects, and most of all, you will learn a new idea or two and directions to take your career into the bright future. I will leave you with a picture of the JPR 14 in Colorado.<\/p>\n<p>JavaPosse Roundup opening ceremony (Dick Wall, center)<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/8268882@N06\/12836636993\/in\/set-72157641658103404\/player\/\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This was one that almost got away.
