 +
** Big Press hype about Microsoft envolvement in Eclipse but rather [http://douggaff.blogspot.com/2008/03/eclipsecon-08-we-barely-knew-ye.html disappointing keynote] by Sam Ramji - no commitment yet by MS but wants to help out in SWT-WPF port and Higgins-Cardspace

** E4: IBM/RAP want to webalize SWT, which may be a good thing in terms of architecture but is not the whole story: need to collect requirements from all the community in a suitable forum, and a face-to-face kickoff meeting

*** In general, it looks like the community is dozing a little wrt Platform - no exciting new talks, no exciting new features but much more breadth of community. Also, OSGi is gaining even more momentum, new Eclipse RT (Runtime) toplevel project started

** [http://www.eclipsecon.org/2008/?page=sub/&id=213 RTSC] and [http://www.eclipsecon.org/2008/?page=sub/&id=37 NAB] were excellent talks from DSDP
