 Hello, my name is Partiz Tepanto and I became a Bernal Jack organizer in the past six months. So I want to talk a little bit about our vocal joelzer group and how we can participate and what is it about. So basically, if you've been here in Bernal before COVID, we used to have this Bernal Java meet-up that was run by people from Hazelcast mostly that were doing semi-periodic talks, but pre-COVID it was easier. After COVID, I took it from the guys because they had not converted time for it and in the past half a year we did already three talks and we are going to have a fourth one on the 28th of June. Last month I registered this Java meet-up officially with Oracle to become a Bernal Java user group. So now you can find us on Oracle website with all the Jacks and we are in collaboration with CZ Jack in Prague. So basically, we actually have a meet-up group. We should have this. You should tell me this before now. That's funny. Okay, so let's continue. So on the meet-up.com we have over 580, I think, members. But after COVID, we are really struggling to get people in person to these meet-ups. So this is why I decided to have this lighting talk. We also, like, why I decided to rebrand this and create a new community is basically a few reasons. The first ones I already mentioned and the third one is that the original Bernal Java meet-ups were happening in PAP, where there is really bad projector. So many people came for a beer and didn't have much from the talk. So I'll wait for photos. So we are making now the first meet-up on the 28th with a bunch of changes. First thing, we are changing the venue. We are moving to Faculty of Informatics at NASA University at Botanicka Street in Inburno, where we will have definitely better everything because it's university standard. We also have a possibility because now I am in contact with the people at the university to potentially get even the big lecture rooms if eventually there would be interest from the many people. And we also have now a small budget from Red Hat as official sponsor, so we will have a small after party with provided catering. So there will be beer. I need to put this in, you know, bolts. Why I decided to do something like this? I was actually lucky enough to be invited to so-called Tour de Swiss Jacks at the beginning of May, where I went to three different Jacks in Switzerland in three days, and I had the opportunity to see what Java community can become. If you are interested, this is Jack.ch, like Jack Switzerland, and you can find them there. This was only German speaking part of Switzerland, which is I think five or six cities, and in every city they already are running this for more than 26 years. If you know how old Java is, then you can guess like this was pretty early. And each talk was around like 20 to 30 people, and the talk itself went great. But after party, after each event with the provided catering or something else, that kind of networking opportunities, many of these people, this is not just to show you how cool long hair I have in the wind. I meant really good people that are interested in our technologies in our products. I stayed in contact with them and we are still continuously discussing different possibilities for them to come here, for me again to come there, etc. So this kind of networking opportunity is something that I want to create for people here in Bruno, to really grow the community of Java developers around the meet-up. If you are interested, why this is happening such nicely, and again they have a lot of years on top of us, if you go into this link you will get a very nice presentation that I was playing before my talks, where they list around 30 to 40 companies that are supporting them in the five cities, which means that they have really nice budget. So in other words, if you are working for a company that would be interested in supporting local meet-ups, and I see very many redhead faces here, so that sucks. Please ask if somebody would be interested now, for instance, in talks with Oracle, to get them also presenting and also some kind of support. This will take time, but this is my goal, so this is what we are trying to achieve. I already mentioned after-party, and again, as I already mentioned, there is already ongoing collaboration with CZ Jack, which is in Prague, by a chance also run by a Slovak guy, because we are active in Czech Republic, it seems. I think that we would be definitely able to get some similar type of tour the Czech jacks in the future, if there would be someone able to do this for us. I already know a few speakers, because my personal contacts that would be willing to do this kind of one day Prague, one day Brno, or other way around. And potentially, we will get more jacks in different cities, what do I know? Yes, what we need right now, especially I think that corona brought all of us into more cozy home environments, and I think that this is a big reason why people are not willing to, thank you, are not willing to no longer come physically to a meet-up. But for me, at least personally, this is a different type of experience when you can talk to people and exchange the experiences. Definitely, I think that there is, like, if you just watch everything online, yes, you will learn the stuff that you want to learn about, but it's that experience of that after-party where you make contact when you can basically learn about new possibilities of where to take whatever you are doing somewhere else. Definitely, if we are going to continue this, I will need to work more on the sponsors because it's expensive if you are paying for everything. But so far, so good, like 15 people is okay. 50 people would be a problem for me right now. Because we are moving this to faculty, we will be taking now a pause during the summer, but starting from September, I definitely think that I can do every month till the end of the year, so for talks from September to December. But depending on the speakers, how many speakers I can get, at least every second month, I would like to have a meet-up. And because we are now moving to faculty, there is also a possibility to do this in hybrid mode, so we can actually stream it online and make recordings. And I already mentioned collaboration with CCJUK, so we can skip that. Okay, and where to find us? This is the important slide. We have now Twitter, Mastodon, definitely meetup.com, where we still schedule new meet-ups. And basically, that's it. Do you have any questions or ideas? Also, if you would be interested in collaboration in organizing these kind of events, just reach out to me, because currently it's only me and few other people that are working around it. Which I'm kind of still... Everything needs to go through me. So if I can't afford something and people would be interested, then just please ask. Any questions? Then I think that I'm finished. Thank you. Do you have something? Oh, yeah, I forgot to include a sneak peek for upcoming talks. So I can go into meet-up, and I can go into meet-up. Yeah, I know it's the DevCon CCJUK, and there are no... 2023. It's hard to do it on the second monitor. It's hard when I don't see it, so I will put it here. You will look into very small terminal now. So the next talk... And this is very small. The next talk will be done by Michael Winkler, OpenSheep serverless inaction. So basically how to do Java in serverless applications. If you are interested, here it is. Thanks for a good point. Okay, then I'm finished. Thank you for your attention.
