The EclipseCon Europe and OSGi Community Event program is now on the website.

The conference begins with a morning of tutorials; be sure to pre-register to attend your choice of the sessions offered then.

Register by September 30 for the lowest price, and book your hotel now; the conference hotel will sell out soon.

A very limited number of sponsorships are still available; email us for more information.

The Eclipse Foundation, in partnership with Eclipse member companies, is offering the Fall Training Series. Included are two new courses, Eclipse4 RCP and Building OSGI/RCP with Maven/Tycho, as well as EclipseRCP, Eclipse BIRT, and Modeling Technologies. Eclipse experts will lead the sessions, providing practical experience through classroom instruction and hands-on labs. Virtual and on-site classes are scheduled in several countries from October 15 to November 23, 2012. Check the training class web page for details.

Our next EclipseCon North America will be in Boston, March 25-28, 2013. The program committee is already meeting, and we expect to open submissions in mid-September. Watch for announcements on the website or via email and social networking.

Another EclipseCon means another opportunity to participate as a sponsor. Please contact us for more information, or check the website in mid-September to see the prospectus.
