ECLIPSEWORLD 2008
From the Chairman

Dear Software Professional,

Java developers raise the bar on what they need for Eclipse—and EclipseWorld is at your service. Eclipse is the platform platform of choice for most Java developers and developer teams. EclipseWorld is the best place to learn how to become a better Java developer using the the Eclipse toolchain.

At EclipseWorld 2008, we’re assembling a class schedule that dives deeper — deep into the most popular parts of the Eclipse ecosystem, like the IDE, the testing tools, the modeling tools, the GUI tools. We have more coverage than ever before of the Eclipse Rich Client Platform, one of the hottest application development/deployment technologies today.

EclipseWorld 2008 will brings all Java developers to the cutting edge of Eclipse—and beyond—with sessions about the Ganymede Simultaneous Release, the mega-update to dozens of Eclipse projects coming in mid-2008.

If you’re riding the Eclipse wave, EclipseWorld 2008 will be your best bet to hang out with the brains behind Europa. Learn it straight from the source at EclipseWorld 2008.

For the second year, EclipseWorld will be close to Washington, D.C. — in Reston, Virginia, in fact. Close to Dulles Airport, within commute distance of the tech-heavy regions of Maryland and northern Virginia, and a non-stop flight from just about everyplace. Not only is our conference facility the biggest ever for EclipseWorld, it’s the easiest to get to.

If you’ve been to EclipseWorld before, you know that it’s specifically designed for Java software professionals who either use Eclipse today or are seriously considering the use of Eclipse tools and technologies. Our superb faculty of expert instructors includes many contributors to Eclipse’s core technologies, as well as top-flight Java development. They know Java and Eclipse inside and out — and are ready to pass their knowledge on to you.

I’m looking forward to seeing you at EclipseWorld 2008!

Sincerely,

Alan Zeichick
Conference Chairman
