Metrics for Success

Thursday, September 29, 2005 - 10:53

Lots of times I get asked about ‘numbers’ at Eclipse. Usually people want to know download numbers. I personally don’t think downloads are a great metric for success of Eclipse. To quote a former colleague: ‘Counting downloads is like McDonald’s counting the number of hamburgers served, not digested’.

To be sure we get lots of downloads at Eclipse . However, the metrics I often use are:

eBay SDK for Java and RCP

Wednesday, September 28, 2005 - 10:14 by Wayne Beaton

I’ve been looking into the use of eBay from an Eclipse RCP. The good news is that it works; at least, I’ve had some success. eBay provides a site for developers where you can get a software developer’s kit (SDK) that includes almost everything you need (more complete examples would be nice) including documentation, examples, and Java libraries. The libraries are Apache Axis-generated web services code (generated from a provided WSDL file).

On September 15th/2005, I wrote about the WebTools Project (WTP) and some issues that I encountered while trying to create a client for a web service in a plug-in. It turns out that this support is in-plan for version 1.0.

PHPEclipse and XAMPP

Sunday, September 25, 2005 - 16:05 by Wayne Beaton

At the Eclipse Foundation, we tend to eat our own dog food. Foundation employees use Eclipse itself to generate content for the website (I can’t speak for individual project teams, but I’m pretty sure that most of them do as well). In particular, we use PHPEclipse to create and edit most of the content (which makes pretty heavy use of PHP).

Draggin’ and droppin’ URLs

Yesterday, I wrote about the ability to drop URLs onto an SWT component. I’ll pause for a couple of minutes while you go back and review it…

Marketing Symposium Presentations

Friday, September 23, 2005 - 03:52

Just wrapping up a busy week of the Marketing Symposium and Members’ Meeting. It is always great to see face to face the people from companies working in the Eclipse community. I really wish we could do this more often but I guess we will have to wait until EclipseCon 2006.

Thursday, September 22, 2005 - 23:25 by Wayne Beaton

I was asked a question today about whether or not Eclipse RCP can integrate with Firefox. The short answer is “yes”. The longer answer is “what do you mean by ‘integrate’?”.

Guidelines for Press Releases from Eclipse

Tuesday, September 20, 2005 - 04:46

When should Eclipse issue a press release and when should we not? As the number of members and projects grows at Eclipse, I am increasingly asked about issuing press releases. Therefore, I thought it would be useful to develop a set of guidelines that the entire community understands and supports. Your feedback is certainly appreciated.
