Re: [eclipse.org-eclipsecon-program-committee] A couple more EclipseCon 2010 Panel Ideas
|
After giving it more thought and considering what we want to do with panels, I'd like to drop my idea for an Enterprise deployment panel. It's just not a controversial thing and won't be very entertaining. I think this would be better served with talks from people sharing their experience. I'll keep an eye pealed for such talks and try to recruit a couple.
Let me know what you think,
Thanks,
Doug.

Just trying to bring this one to a bit of a close. I think that
in every case there's no real argument on the basics of the
content of the panel, it's just the title is causing some comment.
The title is important, as it does set a level of expectation for
the audience and of course it is useful in the promotion of the
panel itself. So let's think of getting the title with that context
in mind.
Just to recap, the outstanding titles (minus humorous subtitles,
plus some comments distilled) are:
"The Future of AppServers" -- possibly too broad, product-oriented?
"Web Application Development Models" -- possibly too
narrow, even misleading?
"The Future of Enterprise Java" -- very broad
I think that Bernd's comment about the OSGi EEG is also
relevant.
So what do we want out of this panel? What I would like to
see is a discussion about what is going to happen next in
the space that used to be J2EE Application Servers. Are
people 'slimming down'? How does JEE 6 affect things?
How about standard modular approachs like OSGi? Can
I build my next "appserver" cafe-style, picking and choosing
the pieces? Are there going to be new deployment standards?
Will there be changes to the Application description format?
How is this going to be affected by OSGi standards? Will
war files ever go away?
Those, I think, will all be relevant questions to the people
on the panel. If you agree, perhaps we can reverse-engineer
the title from the question corpus :)
BTW - I can get in touch with the Spring guys to see if
they want to join in the fun here.
cheers
