WhatIsVoCamp - VoCamp Wiki
VoCamp is a series of informal events where people can spend some dedicated time creating lightweight vocabularies/ontologies for the Semantic Web/Web of Data. The emphasis of the events is not on creating the perfect ontology in a particular domain, but on creating vocabs that are good enough for people to start using for publishing data on the Web. The intention is to follow a "paper first, laptops second" format, where the modelling is done initially on paper and only later committed to code. The VoCamp idea is influenced by BarCamp, although the emphasis is different. Whereas BarCamps are oriented to demos and presentations, VoCamps are oriented to hands-on technical work and practical outputs; any presentations and demos should be short, highly on-topic to the vocabulary development process, and limited in number, to leave plenty of time for hacking on new vocabularies.

JavaZone 2009, Qi4j and the NoSQL movement
If you have an EventSourcing architecture, based on Qi4j, this cost should be minimal, but if you want to DIY then it might be a quite considerable. An important point that Trond makes is that this model makes it much easier to have a domain model which you can evolve without disturbing other clients, as they will NOT be integrating with the application store as such, but will instead be working with the event stream.
Le mouvement NoSQL aka je reviens 30 ans en arrière et je remets tout dans un gros bloc clef-valeur est bien mignon, mais c'est bien tant qu'on reste chez soi et qu'on fait tout tout seul. Sinon on se retrouve à multiplier les interfaces et des routines d'import-export.

Cucumber - Making BDD fun
Cucumber lets software development teams describe how software should behave in plain text. The text is written in a business-readable domain-specific language and serves as documentation, automated tests and development-aid - all rolled into one format.
Cucumber works with Ruby, Java, .NET, Flex or web applications written in any language. It has been translated to over 30 spoken languages.

The Google Apps Blog (original posts): Introducing Google Calendar Labs
When you sign in to Calendar today, you'll see a new page in Settings called Labs where, just like in Gmail, we'll list new highly experimental features for you to try. (Those of you who use Google Apps at work or school will first need your domain admins to enable Labs by checking the "Turn on new features" box in Domain Settings.)
