Some listeners have reported problems downloading the latest episodes. This appears to be a libsyn issue, as described on the libsyn support blog: CDN Issues 9:00am
EST - We experienced an issue with our CDN last night that caused
issues with new file uploads. Our network team communicated with a
service provider to resolve the issue, and uploading has been restored.
If users notice any issues with recently upload files, please email
support@libsyn.com for assistance. We apologize for the inconvenience.
9:30am
EST - We have heard reports from users that some recently uploaded
media files are unavailable for download. Please report any issues to
support@libsyn.com.
Update
1:00pm EST - We are aware that the issue goes back to files uploaded
since 3/11 - we have a script running that will be fixing the issue for
these episodes. We appreciate your patience while we continue to work
towards resolution.
It sounds like they are on top of it, and normal service should be restored soon. We are very happy with libsyn, and issues like this are far more rare than they would likely be if we tried to run our own service to deliver content, so please be patient and hang in there. I will check in later to make sure things are working again. Dick Update:Downloads seem to be working again as of 1.30pm PST Tuesday March 24th. Thanks to Libsyn for a quick response.

The eagle-eared of you may have noticed a new feature at the beginning of the Java Posse this episode - a chance for you to sing your own Karaoke version of the Java Jing Jing theme song.
In truth it is missing because I was in a hurry and hit the export track rather than export all tracks option in audacity, and I didn't notice the problem until too late. I could fix it, but Tor and I decided that it would be quite fun to leave it as it is. The music is missing from the end of this one as well.
Perhaps we could put the idea out there that the silence is protesting something :-). The whole Eircom thing sounds like a good excuse. Solidarity brothers.
Anyway, normal service will be resumed in the next podcast, for now - enjoy your singing.

have been warned! We ran to about 1 hour 45 minutes and had a blast.
This episode will be particularly useful to you if you have not
listened to all of our episodes, since we discuss milestones,
interviewees, highlights and other standout material you might not have
heard before.
In particular, many of the interviews we have done in the past are
still relevant today, and cover information people have been asking for
recently!
We have provided links to the interviews and roundup sessions below.
For links to other episodes please look on the right side of the Java
Posse site - http://javaposse.com - where our archives are organized by

This is the last time a BASE announcement will appear on the JavaPosse site, but we are just getting going and I missed the chance to talk about it in the last podcast because we were still sorting out a room. The next BASE (Bay Area Scala Enthusiasts) meeting will take place on June 10th in Kazan, Building 40, at the Googleplex in Mountain View. We are going to meet in the lobby of building 40 at 6.15pm and sign everyone in to get started at 6.30pm. We have a large board room now, which should be more conducive to talk and hacking (and should have enough power outlets for people to bring their laptops). This will be the first real BASE meeting (i.e. one where we actually talk about Scala), and there is no set agenda. Come with ideas, questions and a willingness to learn. Future meetings will be held in the same location and same time on the second Tuesday of each month. Also, please consider subscribing to the Google group for updates: http://groups.google.com/group/scala-base Thanks Dick
