FWIW, I would look at the sponsor profiles as a bit of guidance. 

There's a number of Enterprise software companies, so I'd definitely recommend a strong enterprise focus.  There's strong modeling and design sponsors again, so definitely recommend a strong focus there.  A number of tools/technology vendors (small and large), so some focus there as well.

I don't really see any mobility interest showing up yet, so I believe you are asking a very good question if there will be a strong attendee profile for it beyond a passing interest.

Hi Achim et al.,

I had the exact same feeling while looking at these proposals… I would accept a talk highlighting how the Android/BB/whatever Eclipse-based SDK can be used in conjunction with other pieces of Eclipse technology to build a rich solution, but, just like you, I don't see much interest in focusing on "Android/BB/whatever development tips and tricks" … 

FWIW, https://www.eclipsecon.org/sessions/mobile-and-enterprise-communication-eclipse-rt-makes-it-easy looks interesting enough from my perspective.

Hi all,

there are quite a few proposals in the domain of "Mobile device Programming", especially Android-SW-Development. I can see that these are important and interesting topics but I'm not sure if EclipseCon is the right forum for these talks. Examples include

Why you still need to learn Objective-C to build "real" iOS apps – and how to get there

Location Based Services - Tips & Tricks and a least 3 more proposal from ekke

Android Jumpstart - Introduction to Android App development

and a few not so obvious talks which I remember but can't find in a hurry.

It's my opinion that it is not enough to have an Eclipse based toolchain to validate talks which are centered at Android/Blackberry/iOS development.

What's your opinion?

Achim
