Javapolis hangover and release

I'm still stuck in Antwerp waiting to go back home and have some time waiting in the lobby while Julien is sleeping on the floor.

This year was really good for me, professionally and personally. We had the chance to meet JBoss Portal users, some claiming how impressed they were about the performance testing they did on our product compare to other similar open source solutions. I was also able to explain to a few what we are doing and what is our focus.

On a personal note, i really had a lot of fun. Some memories will stay forever, like this belgium-mexican restaurant (Anchiladas with Fries) running out of water so they couldn't serve water anymore ("Water is finished") or other things that i cannot mention on a blog (came back with Emmanuel B and Julien at 5am i think, crashing (literally) in my room)

We were able to do the release of 2.6.3 despite several hiccups (last minute bug, and last minute API change from a third party providing some online services...) and a hangover (last minute drinks, but don't worry the binaries were done, it was just a matter of announcing it).
