 The JCP is participating at several
industry events in the coming months.
TeleManagement World (TMW), Nice (France), 17-19 May. This conference, organized every year by the
Telemanagement Forum (TMF), is the largest conference worldwide dedicated
to OSS. The quarterly JCP program Executive Committee (EC) meeting and JCP Training session will be collocated
with TMW, leading to multiple interactions between both events.
The JavaOne Conference, San Francisco (US), 27-30 June.
This conference, now in its tenth year, is one of the largest gatherings in the world of developers,
IT managers, and business professionals who are focused on Java technology. The JCP program will have
activities planned for JCP members during the conference-stay tuned for details.
