Re: [jakarta.ee-community] Looking for Volunteers for the Jakarta EE Booth at Devnexus 2023

Hi Zahid!

while our desire is for all Application Developers to use Jakarta EE, our role at the booth is not to "persuade  them to change direction", but rather to make them aware of Jakarta EE the progress that has been made so far. A lot of the Application Developers are still not aware of Jakarta EE and the transition from Java EE -> Jakarta EE. So our main goal is to raise awareness about Jakarta EE of the Application Developers!

In terms of the material that can help you, we will have that prepared for you, if you wish to use it. Presentations are and new ones will be added to Jakarta EE Community ->  Presentations folder   in the Jakarta EE.

We also want developers to invite to get engaged and involved with Jakarta EE. The main question we always get is - how to get involved. There is a short PPT for that as well.

In terms of "competition" with Spring - we do want to point out that it is not really a competitor, as VMware is a member of the Jakarta EE Working Group and that there is Spring dependency on Jakarta EE. You can refer to the following articles

https://spring.io/blog/2021/09/02/a-java-17-and-jakarta-ee-9-baseline-for-spring-framework-6

https://spring.io/blog/2022/11/24/spring-boot-3-0-goes-ga

https://spring.io/blog/2022/11/16/spring-framework-6-0-goes-ga

I hope this helps and I hope we'll see you at the booth!!!

Best Regards,

Tanja

Is the purpose of this  conference  to persuade  Application Developers to change direction  to JakartaEE, If so  is that what is expected from the "volunteer" to pitch the  benefits of JakartaEE to Application Developers over other competing technologies  and also to Software House'  technology decision makers to take up JakartaEE for their next project or even migrate from their current applications ?

Dear Jakarta EE Community,


As we shared before, for the very first time, we will have a Jakarta EE track at Devnexus 2023 which includes 10 Jakarta EE sessions. Here is the link to the social kit document to help us with promotion of the sessions and speakers. Thanks in advance for your ongoing support!

We also have a Jakarta EE booth at Devnexus on April 5-6. If you are planning to attend the event and are interested in volunteering, please add yourself in the  Booth Sign-up sheet here. The idea is to engage with the attendees at the booth, talk or present demos/few slides about Jakarta EE. Your support is highly appreciated! 
We have one free full conference pass that we can offer to one of the volunteers  at the booth on a first come first served basis. Please note that the deadline to assign the free pass is 6 March! 

Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions,

Thanks,
Shabnam
