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...
Mercredi dernier s’est tenu à Toulouse, dans le bar “ le Pakito“, le DemoCamp français destiné à fêter la sortie de Ganymede ce 25 juin (déjà demain, donc !). Étaient présentes plus d’ une vingtaines de personnes, provenant des sociétés Actia, Airbus, Apside, Anyware Technologies, Continental, IBM Rational Software, Mipih/...
Ganymede is just around the corner, and I wanted to take a moment to say thank you to the many Eclipse committers, project leaders and contributors who have all participated in its success. You have done our community proud. I was tempted to list some of those who have made...
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...

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...
Elias posted this note on the Riena Dev list. I think it’s interesting reading that deserves a broader audience. So… here it is. — From my personal point-of-view (having done a couple of RCP projects) the benefit of Riena that is important to *me* is, that Riena will provide a...
I decided that it might be cool to find out which projects are being used together in the wild, so I wrote a new report using data collected by the Usage Data Collector (UDC). The report shows a table where each row contains a pair of projects and a number...
Vous aviez peut-être pu remarquer qu’un concours avait été lancé il y a quelques semaines par Nick Boldt pour que les membres de la communauté Eclipse réalisent des posters pour la sortie de Ganymede. La soumission de posters est désormais terminée : vous pouvez les voir ici, et voter pour...
