Registration Now Open For Writing Open Source Conference
,----[ Quote ]
| Documentation is a vital part of any open source project but it's often
| overlooked because it's not very glamorous. It's difficult to find the time
| to keep up with a project's constant changes and find people to come up with
| skillfully-written material. While bigger projects like OpenOffice and
| Eclipse can afford to hire documentation specialists, in most cases it's a
| job that's left to the FOSS community at large.

The Eclipse Foundation's Mike Milinkovich on EclipseCon and Open Source
Opportunities
,----[ Quote ]
| As we posted yesterday, the EclipseCon conference is coming up next week. It
| will feature many open source movers and shakers, including Mike Milinkovich,
| executive director of the Eclipse Foundation. Mike previously held executive
| positions at Oracle, IBM and WebGain.

|
| Eclipse has such a wide range of technology it is always hard to single
| out ‘hot topics’ but I think there are going to be 3-4 areas of particular
| interest: 1) Eclipse runtime technology based on Equinox and OSGi is very
| popular and generates lots of interest. 2) Eclipse modeling technology and
| specifically the area of domain specific languages, 3) e4, our next
| generation of Eclipse, will get lots of attention, and finally 4) mobile
| application development.
