LinuxWorld Boston 2006

Monday, February 27, 2006 - 09:50 by Wayne Beaton

I sent in my talk for LinuxWorld Boston 2006 on Friday. Friday was the deadline and I do try to take deadlines seriously. As you can see from the fancy graphic on the left, the conference is in the beginning of April; I hate having to submit a talk so far in advance since I tend to tweak my presentations right up to the minute before I present.

Image View plugin

Thursday, February 23, 2006 - 14:20 by Wayne Beaton

I do all of my editing of the pages on eclipse.org (including editing articles for Eclipse Corner) using Eclipse Web Tools. I personally don’t mind looking at HTML, and the HTML editor provided with Web Tools is top-notch (a lot of the content on eclipse.org is represented in XML, which Web Tools handles quite well also). So, I basically have everything I need. Sure, I might like to have a fancier WYSIWYG editor, but I’m not one to complain.

Calling all Europeans!

Check this out. The publishers of EclipseMagazin in Germany have created a 20,000 euro award program for “Outstanding European Contributions on Java and Eclipse“. Very exciting!

Medical Banking on Eclipse

Tuesday, February 21, 2006 - 16:24 by Ian Skerrett

The Medical Banking Project just announced they have selected Eclipse as the platform for their reference implementation. I think it is great to see vertical oriented organizations adopting Eclipse. In my mind vertical frameworks is an important part of the future of open source software and Eclipse.

The Eclipse Tabbed Properties View

Monday, February 20, 2006 - 15:02 by Wayne Beaton

Last night, I posted Anthony Hunter’s new “The Eclipse Tabbed Properties View” article on Eclipse Corner. In this article, Anthony describes the API for building (oddly enough) tabbed properties views. The article gives several examples of uses of tabbed properties, including the following (from the Eclipse GMF 1.0M4):

Business Objects at EclipseCon

Thursday, February 16, 2006 - 15:06 by Ian Skerrett

I have the lucky task of being the sales guy for EclipseCon. This means I get to talk to all the companies that want to exhibit at EclipseCon. This year one company in particular, Business Objects (BO), is being a huge sponsor of EclipseCon. Business Objects is new to the Eclipse community and from my experience of working with them, they really want to contribute back to our community.

How could I have forgotten about Stuttgart?

Thursday, February 16, 2006 - 09:18 by Wayne Beaton

I blogged yesterday about BostonEDGE. But EDGE is not the first Eclipse group that I’ve heard of; there are others, including an Eclipse SIG that’s part of the Stuttgart Java User Group.

Harvard Business Case Study on Eclipse

Thursday, February 16, 2006 - 02:58 by Ian Skerrett

Siobhan O’Mahoney at the Harvard Business School has written a case study on IBM’s strategy and process for creating Eclipse. If any of you are interested in the history of Eclipse, this makes for an interesting read. Also, kind of cool that Harvard is using Eclipse as an example for their business cases.

Unfortunately, you have to pay $6.50 for access to the case study, sorry.

EUG?

Wednesday, February 15, 2006 - 21:51 by Wayne Beaton

It just occurred to me that one of the biggest inhibitors for folks getting together to talk about Eclipse has got to be the acronym. Who wants to go to an EUG (Eclipse Users Group)? It sounds a little like one of the grunts Tim Allen does in his stand up routine. Come to think of it, Tim Allen has made a pretty healthy career out of making grunting noises, so maybe EUG isn’t all that bad after all…
