Wanted: 360 Friends of Helios
To celebrate the upcoming Helios release, the Eclipse Foundation has launched a new campaign to recruit 360 new Friends of Eclipse.
Please consider joining now and help support the Eclipse community.
Introducing Eclipse Labs
The Eclipse Foundation, in collaboration with Google, is pleased to announce Eclipse Labs, a new place to host open source projects
based on Eclipse. Eclipse Labs provides the infrastructure services typically required by open source projects, such as code repositories, bug tracking, project web sites/wiki.
This new service is hosted by Project Hosting on Google Code, so it will be very familiar to developers already using Google Code Project Hosting.
Celebrate Helios at an Eclipse DemoCamp
Members of the Eclipse community will be celebrating the Helios release at
DemoCamps around the world from the last week of May until June 30.
Typically a DemoCamp consists of a series of short demos and presentations from developers building new
and interesting solutions with Eclipse. It is a great way to discover and learn about new Eclipse
technology. There is also lots of time for informal conversation and networking, so DemoCamps are a
great way to connect with colleagues and friends.
