Plans for EclipseCon 2013 are well underway! Submissions are open until November 19. If you'd like your talk to be considered for early acceptance, submit by October 31.

Member companies have a special role in supporting the community as EclipseCon sponsors. To learn more, contact us directly or see the online prospectus.

The November DemoCamps have been organized, and now it's time to sign up to speak or attend. Check the wiki page for a camp in your area.

The Eclipse Fall Training series includes two new courses, Eclipse4 RCP and Building OSGI/RCP with Maven/Tycho, as well as EclipseRCP, Eclipse BIRT, and Modeling Technologies.

Eclipse experts will lead the sessions, providing practical experience through classroom instruction and hands-on labs. Check the training class web page for details.

We hope you were with us for EclipseCon Europe / OSGi Community Event. We set a number of new records: number of attendees (573), variety of new skills acquired (including fire breathing and drone controlling), and new forms of onsite exercise (conga-line dancing).

Thanks to the sponsors, attendees, and presenters who made ECE a rousing success!
