Coming up: EclipseCon Europe 2013

One of my favorite conferences of the year is coming up: EclipseCon Europe. It takes place from October 29-31 in Ludwigsburg, Germany, and I proudly served as a member of the program committee again this year (which was awesome). So I am really looking forward to the conference and to meet all the people from the Eclipse community.

One of the main topics for me this year are all the activities and sessions around the general Eclipse platform and Eclipse as an IDE topic. A lot of discussion is happening in- and outside of the community about the future of the Eclipse as an IDE, a possible lack of innovation and awesomeness, and similar complains. Therefore I am very much looking forward to these talks:
In addition to those talks I am involved in two additional sessions around this topic:
Of course I am still a big fan of the Eclipse Orion project and I am very happy to see a good set of talks being presented about Orion at EclipseCon Europe:
And there are so many more awesome talks in the program. It is going to be a fantastic conference. Looking forward to seeing you there!!!
