JetBrains Development Academy To Serve the Community

You might have already heard about the brand new JetBrains Development Academy. Launched in April 2008, the Academy fosters a community of experts and evangelists to champion best development practices and promote software innovation worldwide.

The JetBrains Development Academy serves as a connection point for developers who strive to adopt top methodologies and use JetBrains products to help them achieve that goal. It plans to provide support for Java and .NET user groups, support educational institutions, conduct in-place presentations, publish articles on the Academy's website, and help users learn about popular and innovative technologies. These benefits will be provided courtesy of the Academy members, who are recognized experts representing various areas of software development.

The Academy website also features a Q&A section, where you can ask questions, get answers and gain valuable insight into the technologies, products and best practices relevant in today's world of software development.

I read everything from those links/pages, but I still don't get it :(. What's "academic" about all that stuff?

This community is very young still (a baby actually :-)), as well as its site. It will evolve with the time-run and become more visible and obvious.
