Torsten and I are feeling very honored by the announcement that Spring IDE is one of the finalist in the ‘Best Open Source Eclipse-Based Developer Tool’ category of this year’s Eclipse Community Awards. We really value the announcement and see this is as great recognition of the work we have put into Spring IDE during the last four years. Thanks to the Eclipse Foundation and the judges.
Additionally I’m very excited to see EclEmma as the other finalist in that category. EclEmma is one of those tools I use myself very frequently and I think it adds great value to the Eclipse Community. Therefore regardless what project takes the award at the end I’m looking forward to meeting with Marc R. Hoffmann, the creator of EclEmma, and the other nominees at EcliseCon and hope that we’ll find some time for a beer or two.
Speaking about EclipseCon I think it is going to be an amazing week; there’ll be lots of Spring-related stuff to see and unveil.
Update: The results are out. Congratulations to the EclEmma project for winning the Eclipse Community Award for Best Open Source Developer Tool.
Congratulation to the Spring IDE team. It is great to have you part of the Eclipse community and at EclipseCon.
Congratulations Christian and Torsten, this is very well deserved recognition.
Sorry, this is a bit off topic.
Could it be that your blog got hacked or spammed? Because all the links in your blogroll point to an online pharmacy (selling viagra and stuff …). Or is this a kind of merchandising?
Thomas, sorry for the spam recently. It is definitely not a “kind of merchandising” from us. Indeed the current WordPress version I’m using is vulnerable for SQL-injection.
I will upgrade asap. You shouldn’t see the links anymore as I cleaned the posts.
