+1 to the no-brainers. If we are lobbying for the
remaining two slots, I really like 1192.
Looks like a great overview
tutorial on OSGi. One of those talks about the forest instead of the
trees. Also, at least one of the speakers has a proven track record of
providing great informative and entertaining talks at Econ. Finally, I
like the fact that this is a re-work of a 2009 OOPSLA talk, typically I find
that talks get better after a couple of rehearsals. Scott From:

Behalf Of Donald Smith Just a quick update for those who may just be coming online
or able to focus on this for a short while today. 1 – We really hope to have closure on the top 5 today. 2 – The goal is to have a good representation of talks
to present, various topics, lengths, styles. 3 – There is a working spreadsheet available here: http://tr.im/HpO9 4 – I think voting is not necessarily the final way we
should pick the winners (i.e., we have to look a bit at picking representative
talks and matching things up), but I think it’s a great way to help us
start with some no brainers. Just putting out a straw man based on those who have made
some notes… (Again, this is just a straw man!) These three seem like no brainers: -
1134 “Eclipse to the rescue”, Extended,
Making For. -
1199 “Lego Mindstorm”, Lightning, Making
With. -
1210 “The Good, the bad, the ugly”,
Standard, Making Community If you agree those 3 are no brainers, for the remaining 2, I
think we need something e4, Modeling, Runtime, OSGi, Tutorial – ish. So, while 1203 “Linux IDE” has more votes than
others, I’m not sure it helps us round out a good representation. I like 1191 “Xtext meets e4” – because it
has some modeling and e4 and is a tutorial, and xtext is pretty cool. 1128 might make a good fit as well, because it’s OSGi
and would appeal to the enterprisey IT types too. -
