Boot camp ends today with project proposals. Team Rolling Thunder has the task of porting the Squawk VM to the compactRIO platform (Power-PC architecture). Getting Squawk up and running is the primary goal, followed by translating the Sun SPOTs APIs, and ultimately terrorizing the halls with a Rolling Thunder powered robot.
The battle begins Monday morning at 0625 sharp. The sun isn't even up then. Time to load up the tunes for the voyage.

The Beginning of a Journey
This is mainly a placeholder post.
Today begins a week of intense training for an upcoming trial. Soon, I embark on a quest with the fine folks at Sun Microsystems on the Sun SPOTs project and the squawk VM.
I know not what my journey entails, but more details will be revealed soon.
Update:
There are 7 people in the world that know how to use multiple cores to do concurrency well. I am not one of them.

Disclaimer: Although I claim ninja status, I am merely in training, and have much to learn in my quest.
