Some Great Gr8 Conference Follow-up

Thursday, May 21, 2009

There have been some great blog posts over at groovyblogs reporting on the sessions at this week’s Gr8 Conference, the Groovy/Grails/Griffon conference held in Denmark.

Among the standouts are an excellent write-up on what’s new in Groovy 1.6 and a summary of a session titled “Groovy Usage Patterns“, both by Peter Bell (the write-ups, not the sessions).

Peter also has a summary on “What’s Changed in Grails 1.1” with a notable section on standalone GORM (something I’ve not been able to get to work yet).

Conspicuously absent though, is significant coverage devoted to Griffon, which is unfortunate since I think this Swing/Grails-like framework has all of the right ideas.
