There has been no announcement about Speakers or talks just yet but going on past experience, I am sure it will be well worth attending. I am already looking forward to going to this conference in December.

I found this quite an interesting read and managed to get through the 320 odd pages within one day. If you are looking for a non-technical book to read you might find this book worth picking up. 

This book basically consists of interviews with some of the big hitters in the Software Development industry, not just people from the Java world. 

Each of the people interviewed in this book are asked a series of questions around what Soft, Hard, and Business skills are needed to really be successful in Software Development and I though all the people who are included in this book has something interesting to say when answering questions on these topics.
