As we all know Ganymede is out. Congrats to everyone involved. I’ve been following the Ganymede buzz on twitter via summize; lots of positive chatter. It looks like @lylo can claim credit for the first tweet about getting Ganymede but I am impressed that @llun did a blog post about...
The Eclipse Day at the Googleplex was a great success. Around 100 individuals attended and all the feedback I received was very positive. The speakers were all top notch and there were lots of insightful questions from the audience. It was a great combination! I especially want to thank Google...
At Nick’s suggestion, I’ve been tinkering with using Zest to visualize the project pairing data that I’ve spend so darned much time gathering from the Usage Data Collector results over the past week. This image was generated using the “ Spring graph” layout algorithm to represent how closely related the...
As a Friend of Eclipse, I was able to download Ganymede this afternoon. Not only did I get it sooner, I got it faster. In fact, thanks to the dedicated bandwidth it was crazy fast to download. Thanks goes to Denis Roy and the webmaster team. It looks like the...

I’m working on a presentation about Ganymede. I’ve already got some slides from the talk Mike and I did at JavaOne 2008, and am in the process of adding material from Chris’ article on developerWorks. I’ve scavenged a lot of material from the Eclipsepedia wiki on the topic and have...
Last week, I wrote about a new report I added for the UDC data that shows project pairings “in the wild”. In a comment, Nick effectively killed my weekend. Nick, my wife’s not happy with you. I showed her your picture. Be careful. The report can now be sorted on...
Mustafa has posted a cool screencam of shared editing using Eclipse. He and a friend, Thomas, chat via Skype while they work together on the same file in shared editor. It’s about as good as real side-by-side pair-programming… It may even be a little better (though pair-programming traditionalists may baulk...
Next week I get to attend two Ganymede Demo Camps. The first being the Eclipse Day at the Googleplex in Mountain View, CA. Unfortunately, the event is full so we are not accepting any more registrations. The second demo camp will be on Thursday here in Ottawa. We still have...
