Does anyone know where and when the Groovy/Grails Experience will be in 2009? I attended the conference in Reston, VA this year and I want to make sure that I make it out to the event next year. So as this is my pre-announcement post for this event, I would like to mention some topics or areas of interest that I would like to see at Groovy/Grails Experience 2009:

- State of Groovy/Grails:
No doubt, a must have presentation on where Groovy/Grails is now and will be going.

-  DSL’s with Groovy:
I understand the concept but how do I apply DSL’s to let’s say Enterprise Integration or Business Process Management?

- Dynamic Productivity for Java Developers:
I am reading Venkat Subramaniam’s book Programming Groovy and I want more.

- Meta Programming:
I liked what I saw at this past event, but now I would like to see it in practice. 

- Griffon:
I have heard quite a bit about it, I have it downloaded, but I haven’t had the time to dig in just yet.

That is a quick list of topics I am looking forward to learning more about. There will probably be more concepts that I will be privy to and interested in by the time the event comes along as I am learning and experimenting every week.
