CDT Summit Fall 2008

The CDT Fall Summit will held Tues-Thurs, Sept 23-25, 2008 at the IBM Software Lab in Toronto (well, Markham really), Canada. This summit, as always, is intended for contributors to the CDT to review their plans and discuss issues with the rest of the CDT community. It is intended for contributors, i.e., people working, or at least planning on working on the CDT. Space is limited and we're happy to meet with users and adopters of the CDT at EclipseCon next March.

To register, please add your name to Attendees list below. Also, feel free to add to the Agenda to let us know what you'd like to talk about.

There is no fee for participation. However, sponsorship from participating vendors would be appreciated and help fund events at the summit.

Driving directions are here.

Hotel availability is here. Most of us will likely be staying at the Hilton which is about a block away from the lab.

Those needing official invitations for visa purposes to get into Canada should contact Chris Recoskie from IBM Toronto.
