| Eclipsecon 2008 ideas |
| |
| 1. Do not talk about architecture at all, there just isn't enough time, and most people won't care for such a 'young' project |
| 2. Integrate quick demos into the talk (talk for bit, show a demo, talk for bit, etc) |
| 3. Topics to talk about: |
| a. what is the project all about? (sell it to the audience) |
| - providing tooling to help with api evolution |
| - api consistency |
| b. what can users expect? |
| - tooling for use from the command line / builder integration / IDE integration |
| - quick fixes for a variety of issues |
| - variety of tools to help plugin developers (expand on these) |
| c. what is the project not? |
| - not a code gen tool, does not create apis |
| - does not work if you don't set it up |
| d. how can it help developers? (new / medium / experts) |
| - api evolution |
| - api contracts |
| - api consistency |
| e. what is the current state of the project? (what can they see now) |
| - building / marker support in IDE |
| - reference extraction |
| - searching (limited) |
| - provisional apis for 'early adopters' |
| f. talk about some of the features like the ability to extract refs, use from the command line, builder integration, searching, integration in the IDE |
