["Campo, Christian" <Christian.Campo@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

What is the opinion of others  ? 

I remember we had a proposal for a JDT tutorial (from Stephan Herrmann) last year and despite my effort to promote it, it didnt end well. :-)

So I am all for it, but what do other PC members think ? Achim, Benjamin, Cedric, Jonas ??

Cheers
christian
