Hi David,

I was reading about your session:

The Java EE 8 Opportunity [CON6086]
David Blevins, Tomitribe
The first era of Java EE was XML-driven. The second era of Java EE,
brought about by Java 5, is annotation-driven and very declarative by
nature. With the advent of Java 8 features such as lambdas and method
references, logic is mobile and Java EE has the opportunity to reinvent
itself, this time from the declarative to the programmatic. This session
explores the possibilities by taking APIs for security, asynchronous
methods, scheduling work, Bean Validation, and interceptors and seeing
how they might be fundamentally changed with the new tools we have and
how CDI extensions might play a critical role in this shift. Of course,
change does not happen overnight. It’ll take all our ideas to reach the
full potential of the Java EE 8 opportunity.

Perhaps after your session you would like to share? Sounds interesting,
I will try to attend.

Thanks,
