TASKTOP EXECUTIVES TO ADDRESS KEY TOPICS INVOLVING ECLIPSE MYLYN AND AGILE DEVELOPMENT AT JAX 2010 CONFERENCE
Kersten and Pingel share Mylyn best practices with software development community
WHO: Mik Kersten
CEO of Tasktop Technologies
Creator of the open source Eclipse Mylyn project
Tasktop Technologies

Senior Software Developer
Tasktop Technologies

WHAT: The following presentations will be given at JAX 2010
From Tasks to Tweets: Social Collaboration for Software Developers
Mik Kersten (May 5, 2010 - 4:15 p.m. - 5:15 p.m.)
Developers are increasingly relying on social technologies to ensure projects are completed. Many software developers are concerned that constant real-time communication will bring productivity to a halt. In this presentation, Kersten will share how new technologies and practices are forming in order to help organizations harness social collaboration as part of an Agile process and integrated tool set. This talk will demonstrate how developers can use the latest social tools alongside established Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) technologies to promote productivity instead of procrastination.
Mylyn 3.4: from Stack Trace to Scrum
Mik Kersten (May 5, 2010 - 10:15 a.m. - 11:15 a.m.)
The rapid adoption of Mylyn has made next big evolution of the IDE clear. Stories and tasks are more central than sourcecode, focus is more important than features, and integration with the Agile workflow is the biggest productivity boost since code completion. During this presentation, Kersten will review how new features in the latest Mylyn release and new integrations can increase the productivity of the entire Agile software development team.
Bringing easy Extension Install to your RCP Applications
Steffen Pingel (May 4, 2010 - 4:45 p.m. - 5:15 p.m.)
Eclipse P2 is a powerful tool for managing plug-ins but lacks a UI that matches the ease of use of the Firefox extension installer which has helped to perpetuate the browsers success. In this talk, Pingel will share his experience with how to bring the Firefox install experience to RCP applications and Eclipse-based tools to the Mylyn project which has developed a reusable component on top of P2 that provides a simplified installer.
