| <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> |

| > <b>What is Galileo and Why 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 Eclipse ecosystem.</p> |

| > <b>Frameworks Showcase</b><br> 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. |

| > <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. |

| > <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. |

| > <b>Galileo In Action</b><br> 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> |
