<h1>Galileo In Action</h1>
<p>On June 26, the Eclipse Foundation is presenting Galileo In Action
- a virtual conference where you can interact with project leads
involved in the release and see demos of the new features. The
annual simultaneous release has now grown to 33 projects with over
23 million lines of code, contributed by committers around the
world. With such a large global community, Eclipse wants to bring
Galileo to you!</p>

do I Love it?</b><br> Doug Schaefer (C/C++ Development
Tooling) and John Graham (Data Tools Platform)
</p>
<div id="intro" class="switchcontent">
<p>Doug and John will give an overview of what exactly the Galileo
release is all about. They will explain what makes Eclipse
projects want to participate in the simultaneoue release and what
is required for them to do so. Doug and John will describe the
improvements Galileo brings to the community and from their
perspective as project leads, what they see as the impact to the

Scott Lewis (Eclipse Communication Framework) and Pascal Rapicault
(p2)
</p>
<div id="frameworks" class="switchcontent">
<p>
ECF is a framework for supporting the development of distributed
Eclipse-based tools and applications. It can be used to create
other plugins, tools or full Eclipse RCP applications that require
asynchronous point-to-point or publish-and-subscribe messaging. <br>
<br> p2 provides a framework for provisioning Eclipse-based
applications. It replaces Update Manager as a mechanism for
managing your Eclipse install, searching for updates and
installing new functionality. <br> <br> Scott and Pascal will give
a short introduction to ECF and p2 and explain what these projects
have contributed to the Galileo release.

alt="Description" title="Description"> <b>Runtime Showcase</b><br>
Tom Watson (Equinox) and Shaun Smith (EclipseLink)
</p>
<div id="runtime" class="switchcontent">
<p>
From a code point of view, Equinox is an implementation of the
OSGi R4 core framework specification, a set of bundles that
implement various optional OSGi services and other infrastructure
for running OSGi-based systems. The goal of the Equinox project is
to be a first class OSGi community and foster the vision of
Eclipse as a landscape of bundles. As part of this, it is
responsible for developing and delivering the OSGi framework
implementation used for all of Eclipse. <br> <br> EclipseLink, or
the Eclipse Persistence Services Project, delivers a comprehensive
open-source Java persistence solution. It has a set of persistence
services enabling developers to efficiently develop applications
that access data in a variety of data sources and formats. <br> <br>
Join Tom and Shaun for a review of these runtime projects and the
new features they bring to Galileo.

alt="Description" title="Description"> <b>Tools Showcase</b><br>
Andreas Buchen (Memory Analyzer) and Roy Ganor (PHP Development
Tools)
</p>
<div id="tools" class="switchcontent">
<p>
The Eclipse Memory Analyzer is a fast and feature-rich Java heap
analyzer that helps you find memory leaks and reduce memory
consumption. Developers use the Memory Analyzer to analyze
productive heap dumps with hundreds of millions of objects,
quickly calculate the retained sizes of objects, see who is
preventing the Garbage Collector from collecting objects, and run
reports to automatically extract leak suspects. <br> <br> The PHP
Development Tools project provides a framework for the Eclipse
platform. The project encompasses all development components
necessary to develop PHP and facilitate extensibility. It
leverages the existing Web Tools Platform (WTP) and Dynamic
Languages Toolkit (DLTK) i in providing developers with PHP
capabilities. <br> <br> Andreas and Roy will talk about the new
and noteworthy features their respective projects will introduce
in the Galileo release.

Jason Weathersby (Business Intelligence and Reporting Tools) and Mik
Kersten (Mylyn)
</p>
<div id="action" class="switchcontent">
<p>Jason and Mik will take a look at Galileo from the perspective of
an Eclipse adopter. The release is important to Eclipse
developers, but there is also an impact to the end user of
commercial products based on Eclipse. Jason and Mik will discuss
how Galileo affects their product delivery and what value it
brings to their end customers.</p>
