[Volunteers] Linux appliance design and other speakers.

[Ewa Matejska]

Hi,

Michael is asking all the questions I wanted answered :)  Like him, I've
never attended one of the  SVLUG meetings.

What would your audience be interested in learning about Eclipse?  My plan
would be a general overview and history.  Followed by a demo of the Java
development environment (maybe C/C++ development environment instead.).

I don't feel I can put together a presentation by this time.  I have to
attend a week long conference next week.  Plus,  I would prefer to present
after Michael.  Eclipse can be used as a front end to gdb and I can demo
that.  How about I present in December instead after Michael's presentation
in November?

Just to clarify, I'm a contributor to one of the Eclipse projects (DSDP-DD).

Thank You,
Ewa Matejska.
