    Lies, Damn Lies and Statistics

    Monday, July 11, 2005 - 14:33 by Mike Milinkovich
    This is sort of “better late than never”, but between traveling to JavaOne and our Foundation staff member meeting last week, I missed Kirill Grouchnikov’s blog posting on who fixed what bugs in Eclipse 3.1. With regard to the Eclipse projects, IBM still has over half of the committers working...

    The Eclipse ecosystem really shined at JavaOne. David Berlind did a good job summarizing this fact in his blog. Congratulations to all the Eclipse member organizations who made announcements at JavaOne. Thank you for the great support you are providing the Eclipse community.

    Download Mania

    Thursday, June 30, 2005 - 02:38 by Mike Milinkovich
    As I mentioned in my previous post, Eclipse.org was hammered by a DDOS attack when we posted Eclipse 3.1. You may have noticed that the form of the attack has almost certainly inflated the number of download requests showing in the “ Eclipse Download Challenge” counter. So as described in...

    JavaOne Roundup

    Thursday, June 30, 2005 - 01:38 by Mike Milinkovich
    So I head for SFO in the wee hours of the morning and thought it would be worth jotting down a few thoughts and observations. Here they are in more-or-less random order. Eclipse was very well represented at JavaOne. For example, it was amazing the degree to which Eclipse showed...

    OSTG, the folks that produce Sourceforge have launched the new Eclipse.Techforge.com. SourceForge has already been the home for hundreds of interesting Eclipse related open source projects, so it is great to see them start a specific channel for Eclipse. Philippe Ombredanne from nexb is the editor of the site. I...

    Eclipse.org Running Better

    Wednesday, June 29, 2005 - 14:37 by Mike Milinkovich
    I just info from Denis (Eclipse webmaster) that part of the reason the site was slow was that we were hit by a DDOS attack at the same time the 3.1 release went up. Denis has dealt with that and the site is running better now. Hopefully we can get...

    And the race begins!

    Tuesday, June 28, 2005 - 14:01 by Mike Milinkovich
    Well, Luis beat me to the punch, but Eclipse 3.1 is released and ready to go! We’ve doubled the bandwidth at http://www.eclipse.org, so hopefully the Million Download Challange will make me pay up big time to my favourite charity. I would really like to thank the platform team for all...

    JavaOne announcements

    Day 1 at JavaOne was a lot of fun. The Eclipse booth was busy and we gave away a lot of T-shirts. In good fun, we even had Roumen Strobl from the NetBean’s team come by to collect his Eclipse T-shirt. I am sure he will wear it proudly back...

    JavaOne Fun

    Monday, June 27, 2005 - 18:45 by Mike Milinkovich
    Well dropping by the Eclipse booth this afternoon really made my day. On the first day of the exhibit hall being open, the interest in the Eclipse Passport and the Eclipse t-shirts has been awesome. When I dropped by there was a line of at least twenty people there waiting...
