LimeWire @ JavaOne
By sam | February 27, 2009
Yesterday I got an email from Sun that a talk I submitted for JavaOne titled, “Developing LimeWire: Swing for the Masses” was accepted! (If you follow LimeWire’s twitter account, you already know.) Pretty nifty, considering it’s the first time I (or anyone here) has submitted a proposal to talk at JavaOne. Mike E & I are going to be giving the presentation. Here’s a short teaser of the abstract, “LimeWire is arguably the most popular Swing application around. With more than 10 million unique LimeWire users per day from all over the world, the technology behind LimeWire has to be stable and the interface has to appeal to all audiences. LimeWire recently rebuilt the entire interface from scratch, using Swing.” We’ll cover how and why LimeWire 5 was created, including details about how we used SwingX, AppFramework, and much more.
See you at JavaOne!.
