EclipseCon Monday wrap-up

Monday was tutorial day at EclipseCon. There were a number of OSGi related tutorials which were well attended. Building Service Oriented Bundle Architectures was an all day tutorial on bundle programming. The session had over 60 attendees and Peter Kriens was tapped to deliver the "keynote" for the day. The Spring and OSGi Combined short tutorial also has a great turnout. We had a full room with over 40 attendees. The attendees were great and asked lots of awesome questions.

Finally, there was a Server-side Equinox BOF at 8:45pm (!) that was standing room only. There are a lot of people using or interested in using OSGi in server-side uses. And to make the BOF perfect, some kind soul from Compuware appeared with a bucket full of ice-cold Corona beer (which is an appropriate beer choice since Compuware leads the Eclipse Corona project :-).
