As far as I can see they concentrate on JEE with some flavors of
JavaFX, Spring and a little Agile/Architects Buzz. Some topics touch
core Java.

I can see only less specific on some products. A little Hadoop, but
not really extensive.

I cannot imagine we compete too much with their current agenda as long
as we center around our products.

Cheers
