As the year comes to an end, Duke and his family head off for their yearly vacation. You are invited to send us a picture of where you think he will go and what you think he will do. Between now and Friday, December 17, 2004, you can send your pictures of Duke on vacation to me at
This may be an excellent chance for you to take out your Duke stuffed toy and position him enjoying a week off from work. The submissions should be tasteful and appropriate for display on this web site. This is not a contest, but we will be happy to show some of the submissions the last week of this year while some members of the java.net team are enjoying their vacations.
