John Resig to speak at Adobe Max Japan

September 3rd, 2007 by Gen Kanai

As the 2007 Adobe Max Japan website has just been updated, you can see that John Resig will be speaking on “Tamarin and the Browser Scripting Revolution” on September 1st here in Tokyo. The session description is as follows:

Adobe releasing their ActionScript Virtual Machine as open source software to the Mozilla Foundation has sparked a browser scripting revolution. In this talk we’re going to look at all the new features being developed on top of the Tamarin JavaScript engine, including ways to embed Tamarin in other browsers. We’ll also look at the new JavaScript 2 language and how that’s being used in Firefox 3 to create some impressive applications.

I believe this is the first presentation on Tamarin in Japan and I think John will be covering some of the exciting new efforts like ActionMonkey, IronMonkey and ScreamingMonkey. John writes more about all of these at his blog.
