Greetings Architecture Council.
The Devoxx conference franchise, which is a well-established
brand in Europe is branching out into North America. Devoxx US
will run from March 21-23/2017 at the San Jose Convention Center
in sunny California. The Eclipse Foundation is helping run the
event and so we'd very much like for there to be a significant
Eclipse community presence at the conference. There will actually
be a dedicated and collocated Eclipse Conference (Eclipse
Converge) on March 20/2017. Devoxx is the largest
vendor-neutral developer conference in the world that is designed
by developers, for developers.
The Call for Papers for Devoxx US is already open, and I am hoping
to see lots of submissions from the Eclipse community. I would
especially like to see as much "IDE" content as possible
(especially in the Java Language track). Note that once the
Eclipse Converge CfP opens in mid-November; you will also probably
want to submit content there as well.
See http://cfp.devoxx.us
Just so you know, both Benjamin and I are part of the Program
Committee, so we'll be there to put up the good fight to get your
content selected.
We're still early in the CFP process, but it would be great if
you can take a couple of minutes out of your day at your earliest
convenience to pitch a talk or two.
Please also spread the word. Let me know if you have any
questions.
Thanks,
Wayne
Note that I shamelessly stole much of the content of this note
from one crafted by Benjamin Cabe for the IoT projects.
