Nomad PIM (http://nomadpim.org):
Nomad PIM is an open-source Eclipse RCP application for personal
information management. By applying the modularity and extensibility of
Eclipse to this domain, it provides a platform for integrating personal
data, and allows customization to personal needs. Founded in 2005, Nomad
PIM has been downloaded over 20,000 times and is available in eight
languages. It contains plug-ins for personal notes, journal, address
book, individual bookkeeping, task management, time tracking and
evaluating basic fitness measurements. An integration with Google Mail
and other Google services is currently under development.

Textile-J (http://textile-j.dev.java.net):
Find out about how Textile wiki markup can be used within Eclipse using
this new open-source project. Various aspects of Textile-J will be
explored, including: Textile markup as a basis for Eclipse help content,
the Textile markup editor, and using Textile to create a
TextPresentation in an SWT SourceViewer.
MDD and Mylyn:
From requirements to code: take a look at how two powerful technologies
can be used together to improve the developer experience on large projects.

Rafael Chaves
TextUML Toolkit (http://abstratt.com/textuml/):
The TextUML Toolkit is a tool for creating UML models using a textual
notation. This presentation will quickly cover the benefits of a textual
notation over a graphical one and show how to create a detailed UML
model that is suitable for code generation.

Andrew Eisenberg
Embedded CAL (http://labs.businessobjects.com/cal/):
Demonstration of editor technology to embed CAL (a strict, lazy,
functional language) directly into Java compilation units
---
Nathan Hapke
Fishtail (http://www.cs.ubc.ca/labs/spl/projects/fishtail/):
Fishtail uses the context of a currently active Mylyn task to formulate
web searches about the code of interest. Searches are performed for a
variety of categories, such as articles, tutorials, and examples of code
use. The goal is to bring web resources into the development environment
as you work, so that information is readily available when you need it.

Lloyd Markle
JQueryScapes
Demonstration of customizable Java code perspectives.

Mik Kersten
Tasktop (http://tasktop.com):
Knowledge workers are overloaded with so much data that they often spend
more time looking for information than they do getting work done. The
Tasktop is an Eclipse Rich Client Application that brings the benefits
of Mylyn’s task-focused interaction to a large range of knowledge work
activities. The Tasktop plug-ins can be used by programmers to integrate
Mylyn with their desktop applications and web services in order to
reduce information overload and bring focus to their entire workday.
Managers can install the standalone Tasktop in conjunction with their
issue tracking or project management repository of choice in order to
streamline the team’s collaboration around tasks. Tasktop leverages the
openness and extensibility of the Eclipse and Mylyn frameworks in order
to re-align knowledge work around tasks. In a similar way to how the
Mylyn developer tools are transforming the productivity of Java
programmers, the Tasktop is set to bring about a fundamental improvement
in the productivity and working conditions of knowledge workers worldwide.
