Six reasons to attend Eclipse Summit Europe

Tuesday, September 11, 2007 - 22:02 by Wayne Beaton

Eclipse Summit Europe 2007Last Friday, I spoke with Ralph Mueller, Director of Eclipse Eco-System Development in Europe about the upcoming Eclipse Forum Europe (ESE) 2007 Conference being held on October 10-12 in Ludwigsberg, Germany. You can listen to the conversation here. More podcasts can be found on the Eclipse Live site and newsfeed.

Speaking with Ralph made me think of how great a conference ESE is, and I’ve compiled a list of six reasons to attend Eclipse Summit Europe:

  1. Last year was a lot of fun; it can only be better this year.
  2. There are some killer keynote sessions this year, and the rest of the programme is awesome.
  3. The symposia and workshops will be held the day before the rest of the conference, so you can attend both.
  4. Attendance is purposefully kept small so that it can be hosted in a cosy venue which makes ESE a great place for networking with other like-minded individuals, and organizations.
  5. There’s beer
  6. I’ll be there. You can meet and chat with me. Seriously, how often do you get to meet somebody as fascinating as I am?

All kidding aside, it’s a great conference and I look forward to seeing you there.
