Mark your calendars now for Wednesday September 19th
and Thursday September 20th. This members meeting will have
two tracks – one for business/marketing/ecosystem and one for
committers/developers.
Business/Marketing/Ecosystem folks will find the meeting as
great way to learn firsthand what is going on in the Ecosystem, learn from the
best on how to market your products and services, build new partnerships and
relationships with organizations that are successful with open source software
and provide your feedback to the Eclipse Foundation. Committers will find
the meeting as a great way to share experiences, recruit new committers and organizations
for your project, interact with users of your project and provide your feedback
to the Eclipse Foundation.
