Hi Posse Listeners. I just got through setting up the Java Posse google group. You can get it at: http://groups.google.com/group/javaposseAnyone can read the posts there, but only members can post (this is hopefully to cut down spam posting). It is unmoderated but if we end up with a lot of spam we might start moderating first posts (I don't think any of us want this to turn into a Chinese links spam distribution medium). Enjoy, and I hope this group gets some traffic. We will, of course, be reading it and joining in.
