Java User Group Nagpur - a retrospection
Java User Group Nagpur, JUGNagpur started in Jul 2008 with the mailing list http://groups.google.com/group/jugnagpur.
Inception of the JUG
When I wanted to join local Java User Group and found no JUG available in my city, Nagpur I started one. Now we also have a home page at http://www.jugnagpur.com and a collaboration wiki at http://jugnagpur.wikispaces.com
Why I joined a User Group:
I believe that when users of a service of product come together and share knowledge, synergy builds between them and new ideas and new concepts come out of this association. I wished to get acquainted with all the professional people who are passionate about Java. A user group sounds the exact answer to this wish. The point to note is this objective has not been achieved till now when I look back to all the activities we have done through this group.
Achievement since 2008 to 2010
In Java User Group Nagpur from 2008 to 2010 we have 162 members and low activity email traffic on the mailing list. We had three events where we met and had Java related sessions. Through this group discussions a new NetBeans User Group Nagpur got started which is a focused group for people passionate about NetBeans IDE and NetBeans Platform.
Student's participation
Our JUG has most of the participation from students studying in undergraduate schools and colleges. They want t interact with people working with Java and pe...
