[news.eclipse.eclipsecon] talks based on commercial products

[Rafael Chaves <rafael@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

According to the selection guidelines for the EclipseCon 2008, even 
though they are acceptable, talks around commercial Eclipse-based 
products are in disadvantage:

I checked last year's conference web site, and could not find a single 
tutorial or long talk that was not about an open-source project 
(excluding sponsored talks). Should one take that for a proposed talk 
that does not focus on an open-source project, the chances of being 
accepted are slim to none?

Thanks,

Rafael
