Re: [eclipsecon-na-program-committee] Bubble Selection

[Ian Skerrett <ian.skerrett@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I don't get a vote but I do like to express my opinion that can be freely ignored.  :-)

If I was on the PC I would vote for the Ceylon talk.  http://www.eclipsecon.org/2012/sessions/ceylon-language-and-its-tools    From a marketing perspective, developers LOVE to talk about and learn about new languages.  I don't know why but languages seem to create buzz.   Therefore, I'd like to be able to promote EclipseCon as a place to learn about new languages like DART, Ceylon, Xtend, DSL in general, and I think we have a Groovy session.   I wouldn't make this the only marketing message for the conference but it would be something I highlight.

My 1 cent worth...

OK. No one has suggested new bubbles so we have a selection of 6 of which we need to select 2.

 

Please take a look at the list (search using the ‘bubble’ tag). Put a 5 vote on the two you’d like to see and not a 5 on the others. I’ll use my magic tool to count the 5 votes and take other things into consideration and bring the two I see as winners to the meeting on Thursday.

 

Thanks!
Doug.

 

P.S. Said magic tool is here: https://www.eclipsecon.org/2012/conference-admin/sessions/vote-breakdown.xls
