Eclipse Equinox OSGI-Training

Eclipse Training SeriesEclipse Training Series

We are offering a two-day OSGi training in several cities.

Equinox is the core of the Eclipse platform and a major contributor to the success of Eclipse on the client-side (RCP). Plug-ins and Extension Points based on the OSGi runtime are solid architectural building blocks.

However, Equinox is not limited to the client-side. It can be applied in a general way to build any kind of application, especially servers.
Imagine extending your server with additional functionality by installing some extra bundles, like a log analyzer for your HTTP service. Equinox-based servers use the OSGi runtime. Today, almost all application servers like IBM, BEA, JBoss, Sun, and Spring are based on OSGi.

Eclipse translations, Babel, FOLT and openTMS

Babel is the Eclipse translation project. But there is lot more going on in the translation area, in Japan at the Eclipse Japan WG and at FOLT here in Germany. The interesting thing about this is that it's all open-source, and all EPL - a huge potential for mutual benefits.

Let me first report on FOLT.

Note: Two RSS Feeds, English and German

One of the goals for relaunching the website was to have a real multilingual website.
