RE: [cdt-dev] CDT at Eclipsecon

["Recoskie, Chris" <crecoskie@xxxxxx>]

And Jeff's is a tutorial, not a long talk.

So that leaves Doug and Greg, although Greg's is more of a PTP talk as
opposed to a CDT one (not that CDT isn't involved in there somewhere).
So basically there is one long talk that's directly CDT related, and
it's on the user track.

I think part of the complaint from the community is that there aren't
really any developer track items relating to what the various bits of
CDT do and how they work.  If you're an ISV and your primary goal is to
find out how to create a product based on CDT, you're not going to find
a lot on the program that meets that goal.  Granted, there were not too
many submissions in this vein either though.

Anyway, just an explanation on my part.  In no way would I want to give
the perception that any of the talks/tutorials you mention don't deserve
to be there.  I'm looking forward to them all the same.
