I came across this on YouTube today and thought I’d share.

KPIT Cummins has just joined the Eclipse Foundation as an Add-in Provider. This is the first time a company in India has joined the Foundation and I hope there will be many more. It is also interesting to see that KPIT claims to have reduced their development costs by 40%...

We are starting to plan for 2007. Part of the process is to identify the key programs we would like to implement during the year and therefore ensure we allocate the budget and resources appropriately. I am putting together a plan for the marketing programs. Obviously the Eclipse Foundation has...

I’ve been spending a lot of my time lately talking with organizations who are building Eclipse applications. Some are building IDEs based on Eclipse technology, others are building their end-user applications using Eclipse RCP. The main focus of these discussions is to try and figure out what sort of help...
