| [science-iwg] EclipseCon for Working Groups Announcement |
EclipseCon has always been a great event for Eclipse working groups, and this year’s virtual EclipseCon 2020 is no exception. The online conference is planned for October 19 - 22, with the great content, networking opportunities, and fun that EclipseCon is known for.
In particular, EclipseCon provides a means for working groups to highlight their projects, to bring their community together to engage in shared initiatives, and to explore with other members of the broader Eclipse community to find synergies and best practices.
Planning for EclipseCon 2020 is well underway. The Call for Proposals for talks in the main EclipseCon program is open now. Submit by June 3, and your talk could be accepted early! The final submission deadline is Monday, June 15.
Community Day, on October 19, is focused on and around working groups. It’s a place to gather your existing community and a way to invite new members to join. Plan a meeting, organize a workshop, hold a marketing planning session, set up a hackathon -- whatever your group wants to do! To join, email info@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx (the earlier, the better, since space is limited).
FYI, for the first time, we also have special sponsorship opportunities for working groups -- distinct from corporate sponsorships -- to enable promotion of the working group within their community. To learn more, email sponsors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.
Regards,
The EclipseCon Team
