Once a month, in the Foojay Podcast, we discuss the history of a Java User Group and the people behind it.
In this episode, we are in Oberpfalz, Germany, for a particular reason: the organizers of the local JUG are the same people responsible for the JCON conference in Cologne in a few weeks.
Let's also learn more about this Java community in Germany!

Declutter Your Code: Your Undead Code Is A Time Vampire
The average Java application contains somewhere between 10 to 50% dead code. In this webinar we'll discuss ways of monitoring JVMs across different environments to identify what runs or doesn't run in each, identify what you can get rid of, and how to work better on these larger applications.
