Jeff McAffer and I presented a webinar yesterday on Eclipse Rich Client Platform. Unfortunately, the playback was interrupted yesterday by a server crash that sent us into the Q&A session a lot sooner than we had expected (and cut off about half of the presentation). If you missed out yesterday...
We finally managed to synch up our schedules after a busy summer so that we could present John Arthorne with his award from the Callisto Great Bugs Competition. The competition was designed to encourage the community to provide great bug reports as part of the drive to the Callisto release...
