We would like to invite you to participate in two new
programs being organized by the Eclipse Foundation and some member companies.
Eclipse RCP Training Series
The Eclipse RCP Training Series is a collaborative marketing
program to promote a series of Eclipse Rich Client Platform (RCP) training
classes around the world. The intention of the training class is to
provide high-quality, instructor-led classroom training for developers that are
interested in building Eclipse RCP applications. The training classes
will occur over a period of time from May 19 – June 13, 2008, and will
consist of 4 days of instructor-led training and hands-on tutorials. The
classes will be organized by the participating member companies in selected
cities. The Eclipse Foundation will help promote the training series and
coordinate the registration of attendees.
If your organization offers Eclipse RCP courses and would
like to participate in this marketing program, a conference call has been
scheduled for Thursday, January 31 to discuss the participation in the program.
Please contact Lynn Gayowski (lynn@xxxxxxxxxxx)
for more details.
Eclipse Plugin Fest for Embedded and Mobile
Products
The Eclipse PluginFest is a two day developer event to test
interoperability and compatibility between Eclipse based plugins and products.
The goal of the workshop is to further enable the tool chain that supports the
software development lifecycle for mobile and embedded development. Therefore,
participation is open to organizations that produce or use Eclipse based
solutions addressing the embedded and mobile markets.
Last year we organized a similar event that was very
successful and included 20 different organizations
participating. This year the event will be held April 16-17 in Sunnyvale, CA at the Wind River offices. If you would like to
participate, please add your name to the Eclipse Plugin Fest 2008 wiki.
We invite all Eclipse member companies to participate in
both of these programs. Please feel free to contact me if you have any
questions.
Thanks
