    Review of local Java projects / products

    It would be nice to have a meetup where local (and smaller) organizations building open-source Java projects or products come present what they're doing. The Meeting community could vote ahead of time on which projects they'd ... Read morelike to see, and the format could be:

    1) Top 4 organizations/people get to present, based on votes on the Meetup board. Organizers picks 4 orgs one week before the meetup.
    2) Each presenter gets 10 minutes for demo and description and 5 minutes for Q&A.
    3) Final 15 minutes is a group Q&A for all participants

    I used to live in New York and there was a community of flash developers there who did a similar type of format and it was very interesting to see what's going on in the developer eco-system.

    Java Scripting Language Overview

    Jruby, Jython, Scala, Groovy, and other JVM scripting languages offer potentially large increases in productivity. They also offer an interesting mix of pluses and minuses. Would be great to get an overview with code and compiling examples.
