Dear Jasper Smith, It's here, and it's better than ever. BEA WebLogic Platform™ 8.1 is available on dev2dev and is waiting for you to stop by, get your own free copy, and start using it today. There's more information about BEA WebLogic Platform 8.1 below, but if (like me) you're an impatient person who only takes three licks to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop, you can click here to get it right now. Our marketing department has told me to say that BEA WebLogic Platform 8.1 includes application infrastructure technology from proven BEA products that are used by thousands of customers worldwide and combine to offer a single, unified, easy-to-use infrastructure platform for application development, integration, deployment, and management, and that's all true. But let me to cut to the chase: BEA WebLogic Platform will save you an awful lot of time and effort when doing your job, and you can get both the software and developer license for free to start building enterprise-class applications right away. It's as simple as that. This edition of dev2dev Dispatch also features information about our newly released XMLBeans 1.0, an upcoming webinar, a couple of user groups, and a chat with Tyler Jewell, BEA's director of evangelism, about the company's platform strategy. And, as always, we tell you exactly how to obtain your BEA dev2dev Subscription, which is scientifically proven to make you a better person. Maybe. Thanks for reading! I look forward to hearing from you regarding your experiences with BEA WebLogic Platform 8.1, XMLBeans 1.0, and just about anything else. Your questions or comments are always welcome. — Jason
Jackson, Editor in Chief In this issue...
