Linux World and Eclipse Forum Europe

Tuesday, March 28, 2006 - 13:56 by Wayne Beaton

I’m gearing myself up for a lot of time on the road. I’ll be carrying the Eclipse banner to Linux World (Boston) next week where I’ll be talking about Eclipse RCP. I’ll be getting some help staffing the booth in the Expo from Eric Clayberg (Instantiations), John Graham (Sybase), and Bill Hilliard (Intel).

I’ll also be talking about RCP and hosting an “Eclipse Nite” at Eclipse Forum Europe (May 8-11) in Wiesbaden, Germany. We’re still hammering out the details for Eclipse Nite, but we’re currently planning to mix a few short (15 minute) talks with opportunities to meet and work with Eclipse committers. Sort of a presentation/discussion/code camp hibrid with a bit of reception built in for good measure.

My talk on RCP focuses primarily on the Equinox component model, but also be covers packaging RCP applications that are extendable and updatable. I’ll probably drag out my wonderful EBay application since it seems that not everybody is as sick of it as I am…

I’m looking forward to Eclipse Forum Europe. I hope to see you there!
