The Eclipse Tabbed Properties View

Monday, February 20, 2006 - 15:02 by Wayne Beaton

Last night, I posted Anthony Hunter’s new “The Eclipse Tabbed Properties View” article on Eclipse Corner. In this article, Anthony describes the API for building (oddly enough) tabbed properties views. The article gives several examples of uses of tabbed properties, including the following (from the Eclipse GMF 1.0M4):

Business Objects at EclipseCon

Thursday, February 16, 2006 - 15:06

I have the lucky task of being the sales guy for EclipseCon. This means I get to talk to all the companies that want to exhibit at EclipseCon. This year one company in particular, Business Objects (BO), is being a huge sponsor of EclipseCon. Business Objects is new to the Eclipse community and from my experience of working with them, they really want to contribute back to our community.

How could I have forgotten about Stuttgart?

Thursday, February 16, 2006 - 09:18 by Wayne Beaton

I blogged yesterday about BostonEDGE. But EDGE is not the first Eclipse group that I’ve heard of; there are others, including an Eclipse SIG that’s part of the Stuttgart Java User Group.

Harvard Business Case Study on Eclipse

Thursday, February 16, 2006 - 02:58

Siobhan O’Mahoney at the Harvard Business School has written a case study on IBM’s strategy and process for creating Eclipse. If any of you are interested in the history of Eclipse, this makes for an interesting read. Also, kind of cool that Harvard is using Eclipse as an example for their business cases.

Unfortunately, you have to pay $6.50 for access to the case study, sorry.

EUG?

Wednesday, February 15, 2006 - 21:51 by Wayne Beaton

It just occurred to me that one of the biggest inhibitors for folks getting together to talk about Eclipse has got to be the acronym. Who wants to go to an EUG (Eclipse Users Group)? It sounds a little like one of the grunts Tim Allen does in his stand up routine. Come to think of it, Tim Allen has made a pretty healthy career out of making grunting noises, so maybe EUG isn’t all that bad after all…

OSBC West

This week both Donald and I are at the Open Source Business Conference (OSBC West). Steve O’Grady already blogged on his impressions of yesterday’s events.

800 people registered for EclipseCon

Wednesday, February 15, 2006 - 09:08

Yesterday was the deadline for the early bird registration price for EclispeCon. We now have 800 people registered. A great number since we still have over 4 weeks to go! Last year we sold out at 1000 attendees, so I can see us easily going pass that mark. I am hoping for 1200-1500 attendees.

Of course you can still register; you just have to pay a bit more :-).

Eclipse in Motion: San Diego and Dallas Debrief

Tuesday, February 14, 2006 - 22:00 by Wayne Beaton

We wrapped up the first leg of our Eclipse in Motion roadshow last week with stops in San Diego (Tuesday) and Dallas (Thursday). I had a great time and I’m pretty sure everybody who attended did. One thing that I’ve noticed about Eclipse events that are different from most other events in my history: folks tend to stick around for the entire event. In both cities, in all sessions, hardly anybody left early. Those who did leave early felt compelled to give us excuses. They were good excuses.

Happy (Belated) 2nd Birthday!

Sunday, February 12, 2006 - 20:35 by Mike Milinkovich

Both my wife and my mother would agree that I am terrible with this stuff. I meant to post this on the date, really I did!

February 2, 2004 is the date we use as the birthday for the independently governed Eclipse Foundation, as that’s the date it was officially announced at the first EclipseCon.

It has certainly been a busy two years!

Thoughts on Borland’s Announcement

Friday, February 10, 2006 - 11:03 by Mike Milinkovich

This week, Borland made some very audacious moves when they announced an acquisition of Segue and a divestiture of their IDE tools business. As others have commented, this does not mean the end of JBuilder or Delphi, but these are certainly bold and strategic moves.
