EclipseCon 2007
Is anyone going to be presenting a talk on Harmony at EclipseCon 2007
next year (March)? The 'deadline' for submissions for long talks (1hr)
is 1st December.
"A Long talk is one hour (or slightly less) presentation that goes
into detail on a topic. A good talk requires preparation and a good
pace; the EclipseCon audience is typically intelligent and well
prepared and thus any introductory material should be very brief (less
than five minutes). There will be four or more long talks happening
simultaneously (in separate rooms, of course)."
I couldn't see any submissions by others
(http://eclipsezilla.eclipsecon.org/php/search-specific.php?query_format=specific&order=relevance+desc&bug_status=__open__&product=&track_id=0&content=harmony)
on the subject. Short talks are only 5 minutes long, and won't be that
good for advertising Harmony :-)
I'll be at EclipseCon, and I'd be happy to present a short talk on
Harmony, but I think that it would be better for someone more core to
present a long talk, like Tim did for EclipseCon 2006.
(http://www.eclipsecon.org/2006/Sub.do?id=531)
Any takers?
Alex.

I was kinda hoping that somebody else would step up and register a talk,
so people don't get bored of the same old faces at these things :-) ,
but given nobody did I've put in for an updated version of last year's
talk so we can show the fantastic progress that _you_ all have made.
Now go and vote for it here ;-)

Yes. The suggested scheme is :
1) Java SE 5 in mid-year 2007
2) Java SE 6 end of 2007
3) Java SE 7 whenever Sun does Java SE 7
I'll add this to the roadmap so people don't wonder.

We have to. When we started this, there was no option other than Java
SE 5. So we'll finish that, and use it as the platform to build Java SE 6.

We're not forking Java - we're doing compatible implementations.

may do many enhancement in other aspects. But some one may say you are
doing "fork"....

I'm assuming that a Harmony 1.0 release of certified JDK 5 will also
remind them :)

Yes, long talks get a free pass to EclipseCon:

There's instructions on how to propose a talk here:

Harmony should make a long talk at EclipseCon 2007. Harmony now has
become a top-level project of the ASF. This is good chance to
advertise!
And the register fee is free if the long talk is accepted as for my
hearing^_^(right?^_^)
Re: EclipseCon 2007

I've had a couple of people comment that they'd be interested in a
Harmony+Eclipse presentation at EclipseCon next year (March). It would
also be a good spot to remind people that Harmony is still going
strong and isn't affected by OpenJDK.
http://alblue.blogspot.com/2006/11/eclipse-neither-of-my-tutorial.html
Although I'm going, I'm just a sidelines lurker here and don't think I
can present a talk on Harmony (not the least of which is that I don't
have a Windows laptop to run a demo on; unless it gets ported to Mac
by then :-) Given that the deadline for submitting long talks is
December 1st, if anyone wants to do it then shout out and/or put a
submission in to
http://eclipsezilla.eclipsecon.org
