EclipseCon Europe / OSGi Community Event News | August 30, 2012

Two for One: 
OSGi Community Event and
EclipseCon Europe

We are very happy to haveOSGi Community Event co-locating with EclipseCon Europe this year. The two conferences are truly intermingled, in that all attendees are welcome to attend any session, whether it is part of the ECE program or part of the OSGi program. To accommodate the additional content, we have expanded into another venue that is very close to the Forum. On Tuesday afternoon and all day Wednesday, two tracks will be at the Film- und Medienzentrum (FMZ), just east of the Forum. There is a map showing the venue locations on the Venue page on the ECE website.

The theme for OSGi Community Event 2012 is "Reducing Complexity with OSGi." The OSGi programemphasizes why modularity is important, and how OSGi technology is the best way to modularize Java applications and enable innovative business solutions.

Keynotes

The lineup of featured keynote speakers this year is amazing. Each talk promises to be relevant and dynamic, and each will be very different from the others.

Christian's Favorite Talks

Christian Campo is the ECE 2012 program committee chair. (Some of you know him as the project lead for the Eclipse Riena project or as PMC lead on Eclipse RT. Christian is a busy guy.) As PC chair, Christian is very familiar with the talks that were submitted this year. Here are some of his favorites.

• Jnario - BDD for Java Jnario is a test framework for Java that allows you to write test specifications in a readable DSL and use them for testing and documentation.
• Living on the Edge: Supporting Native e4 Contributions to Eclipse 4 Of course Eclipse 4 is an important topic this year, and here is an extended talk from two of the key Eclipse 4 committers, teaching us how to use it.
• An Inspirational World Tour: Remarkable Applications Built on EclipseJon Dearden was an early pick this year with his talk. He won a design prize in the Mars Rover competition at EclipseCon 2011, so I have high expectations for this talk, where Jon highlights what he thinks are significant Eclipse applications.
• Welcome to the New Web We have great keynote speakers this year. Most notably, I look forward to Chris Heilmann and his vision of HTML5 and the new web.
