Subject: Barriers to Eclipse: New
Working Group
The recent Evans Data study of the global Eclipse market identified
several barriers to Eclipse use (see below). For the second year in a
row, "lack of Eclipse training" was identified as the number 1 barrier. Not
much farther down the list was "lack of training for Eclipse plug-ins".
I'd like to organize a new working group to gather some deeper
information on these barriers and it would be great if you and your
organization would participate. Using the Survey Monkey market research tools
available from the Eclipse Foundation I'd like to put together a more in-depth
study of the training barrier and possible ways to remove it.
Participation doesn't require a lot of time and there will be no costs
for doing the research. We need input on research topics, questions, and
potential solutions. We have the resources to construct, deploy and analyze
the questionnaire...what we really need is your input on content. The results
will be freely shared with Eclipse members.
Are you interested in helping? Just send me an email and I'll add you to
the mail list for the working group. If there's someone else in your
organization that this message should be directed to, please pass it on.
Best,
MikeT
