Conference Slide Updates

I went to four conferences over the past weeks, talking about various topics around the Spring and Eclipse tooling universe. All the talks included a number of live demos, so just looking at the slides doesn't give you the full experience and content of the talk. But anyway, I uploaded the slides for those who want to take a look:

• SpringOne 2011: Spring Tooling Update - New and Noteworthy (pdf, slideshare)
• JAX London 2011: WaveMaker - Spring Roo - SpringSource Tool Suite - Choosing the right tool for the right job (pdf, slideshare)
• EclipseCon Europe 2011: All about Virgo (pdf, slideshare)
• WJAX 2011: WaveMaker - Spring Roo - SpringSource Tool Suite - Choosing the right tool for the right job (pdf, slideshare)

Enjoy!

OSGi Development Tooling Panel at the OSGi Users Forum UK

I will be at the OSGi Users Forum UK in London on June 23rd to participate in a panel on OSGi Tooling Development as a committer for the Virgo tooling, together with Neil Bartlett (BndTools), Peter Kriens (Bnd / OSGi Director of Technology), Simon Maple (RAD / IBM), Stuart McCulloch (Maven / Sonatype) and Kaloyan Raev (Libra / SAP), who will join us via Skype Video. So join us in London to talk about latest OSGi tooling efforts and discuss what is needed for the future.

My personal highlights from JAX 2011

I spent the past few days visiting the JAX 2011 conference in Mainz. And again, like the past years, it was great to meet a lot of interesting and nice people there. Aside of that, I wrote up some short notes about my personal highlights of JAX 2011 for jaxenter (in German), so if you are interested, take a look. I especially recommend to watch the Kata video with Arne Roock demoing a real Karate Kata. Enjoy!

Slides from Spring Tooing Talk at JAX 2011

Yesterday I gave a short talk at JAX 2011 called "Spring Tooling - What's Cooking". During the talk I gave an overview of the Spring tooling landscape, demoed some nice features of Spring IDE and the SpringSource Tool Suite and deployed a small Spring app into the hosted cloudfoundy.com PaaS as well as into a local CloudFoundry cloud running exclusively on my notebook. Was fun doing that all in 30min... :-)

Here are the slides from that talk:

• Spring Tooling - What's Cooking (pdf)

The slides also contain the part that I didn't talked about (the team behind Spring IDE and STS, challenges of distributed agile development and our release cycles). So if you missed that from the talk, take a look at those slides.

Talk at Nordic Coding - and why OSGi is sometimes a bitter pill

I am happy to be invited to speak at the upcoming Nordic Coding Event in Kiel at April 15th about OSGi. The title of the talk is: "A quick tour through OSGi - and why it is sometimes a bitter pill". So after giving a short introduction about the basic principles of OSGi and explaining why its often indispensable medicine for your project, I will talk about my experiences using OSGi for many years now. And I will talk about why that medicine could be a necessary, but quite bitter pill for you and your project.

Upcoming Event: JAX 2011

I am pretty happy to participate in the upcoming JAX 2011 conference in Mainz, Germany as part of the Eclipse Tools Day (organized by Lars Vogel). In my talk "Spring Tooling - What's cooking" I will talk about the stuff I am doing in my job all day: building Eclipse-based tooling for the Spring development platform. Aside of showing some of the nice features we built into this tooling (like direct deployment to different PaaS clouds and nice improvements for annotation-based spring programming) I will also take a look under the hood. I will take a look at the challenges and problems building this tooling on top of the Eclipse platform and how we adressed them.

See you at JAX 2011 in Mainz!

Slides from WJAX 2010: Agile Practices in the Real World

Last November I gave a talk at the WJAX conference in Munich together with Matthias Lübken about our experiences using agile methods in difficult settings. We went trough our observations adapting or replacing typical agile practices with different ones when necessary and talked about what worked and what didn't. The slides are in a lightweight style, so the real content of our talk was spoken only. Nevertheless you can find the slideware we used here:

• Agile Techniken ungeschminkt (pdf)

Enjoy!

Ready for Eclipse Summit Europe 2009

Tomorrow I will travel to the Eclipse Summit Europe 2009 (Ludwigsburg, Germany) to meet great people, see interesting talks and participate in two session on stage: I am happy to present together with Jeff McAffer from EclipseSource our experiences using OSGi in various settings and the "best practices" that we extracted from that. So if you are interested in avoiding the faults and mistakes I did during the past years, join our talk (OSGi Best Practices) and see me talking about my own failures... :-) Its Wednesday at 1:30pm.

In the second talk I will give a short overview of the Equinox Weaving project (formerly known as Equinox Aspects), what's new and what's coming up in the future (Equinox Weaving: Bytecode Weaving in OSGi). So if you would like to hear more about bytecode weaving classes in an OSGi environment, don't miss these 20 minutes at Wednesday at 3:30pm.

See you all in Ludwigsburg!
