Re: [eclipsecon-na-program-committee] 81 Talks Selected

[John Arthorne <John_Arthorne@xxxxxxxxxx>]

For the "unrepresented technologies"
category, here are talks that I rated fairly high and would be happy to
see accepted:


https://www.eclipsecon.org/na2014/session/fk-ide-build-your-own-sdk-cbi
https://www.eclipsecon.org/na2014/session/creating-data-driven-web-apps-birt
https://www.eclipsecon.org/na2014/session/infinity-and-beyond-%E2%80%93-making-jubula-surpass-its-limits
https://www.eclipsecon.org/na2014/session/developing-and-scaling-web-apis-eclipse-gyrex
https://www.eclipsecon.org/na2014/session/scout-cloud

I'm not worried about a Scala talk -
it's not an Eclipse technology per se and don't see why it absolutely needs
representation. CBI is mostly of interest to committers so for EclipseCon
where committers are a minority I wouldn't be worried about it. However
it also looks like we don't have a lot of Tycho content, and I think Thanh
is a wizard and would love to see him get a chance to speak.

For the "on the fence" talks
only these ones jump out as talks I think we should consider:

https://www.eclipsecon.org/na2014/session/edit-compile-debug-45-million-lines-unix-c-codes-any-box-using-eclipse
https://www.eclipsecon.org/na2014/session/rapid-reactive-webapp-development-play-eclipse
https://www.eclipsecon.org/na2014/session/challenge-or-temptation-eclipse-can-build-glass-apps
https://www.eclipsecon.org/na2014/session/wiring-internet-things-node-red
https://www.eclipsecon.org/na2014/session/scout-cloud
https://www.eclipsecon.org/na2014/session/advanced-tests-tycho
https://www.eclipsecon.org/na2014/session/delivering-native-eclipse-software-packages

I changed my vote on the "fence"
talks either up or down based on this list above.

I've met with a few small groups, and accepted a few more
talks (>=3.7) in RCP and Java. This comes to 80 selected talks [1].
I've also heard back from Docker, and they are going to present. Finally,
I marked 17 'on-the-fence' talks that I think are close, and we should
consider [2]. 

80 + 1 + 17 == 98 (our magic number).

Unfortunately it's not that easy :(. I've received the
CDT talk from PayPall (I'll send out the abstract). Also, there are a few
projects that are not represented.

• Birt (We have a tutorial though)
• Jubula (Alex is giving another talk, and we have a tutorial)
• CBI (We have a talk on HIPP, but not CBI itself)
• Scout
• Gyrex
• Scala

So, here is what I need you
to do: 

1.        Go
through the 'accept' [1] talks and see if there are any you completely
disagree with. I imagine 'JDT Tips and Tricks' might be a bit controversial,
however it is being given by a pretty talented female committer on the
JDT. I think giving the chance for some core JDT committers to present
about advanced tips and tricks in the JDT is "a good thing".

2.        Go
through the other talks and let me know if anything else should be considered
(anything not marked as 'on-the-fence'). This can include projects that
are listed above (for example, which scala talk should be on-the-fence).
I don't think we need one from each project, but let's make sure we consider
this.
Cheers,
Ian
