PARTICIPATE IN THE IOT DEVELOPER SURVEY 2017

We’re pleased to launch the third annual IoT Developer Survey. In past years, the survey has provided an interesting insight into how developers are building IoT solutions. The survey will run until March 17, 2017 and the results will be published in early April 2017.

This year the Eclipse IoT Working Group is partnering with the IoT Council, IEEE IoT, and the AGILE-IoT research project to expand the scope and respondent pool for the survey.

Take the time to complete this 5-8 minute survey. It not only allows us to analyze the latest trends, but it gives you a chance to get your voice heard. You will also get access to the analysis in April.

DIVERSITY AT THE ECLIPSE FOUNDATION

Last week, we announced a number of Eclipse Foundation initiatives that will be focused on growing and supporting open source projects and developers in communities all over the world.

Some of these initiatives include:

  • Identifying ways in which all Eclipse events are inclusive events and welcoming
  • Rolling out an ambassador program to involve the community in welcoming newcomers into the ecosystem
  • Reaching out to established projects to see how we can support their efforts
  • Making all Eclipse Foundation websites and resources easier to navigate for native non-English speakers
  • Providing the community with a direct path to Foundation staff for ideas, complaints, feedback and other issues that our community or members may encounter

If you would like to find out more, check out Thea Aldrich's blog post. If you would like to get involved with these efforts, please contact thea@xxxxxxxxxxx or join us on the Eclipse Foundation Mattermost Diversity Channel.
