Eclipse Summit 2009 – Short Talk Proposal

The planning for this year’s Eclipse Summit in Ludwigsburg, Germany is underway.
We’ve put in a submission for a short talk to present the work we did at Diamond Light Source. You can view the abstract here. The talk will focus on taking Eclipse into a new scientific domain, with the potential of forming the basis of an open source platform for synchrotron data acquisition. We envisage this would meet the criteria of getting people excited and engaged at the potential for Eclipse to conquer this new territory. Whether the committee agrees with this remains to be seen. The level of talks at Eclipse conferences and summits is always very high so it would be great to make the cut. However competition is stiff and at the time of writing there were 152 submissions to contend with. The talks will be chosen by August 25th, so we await the decision with bated breath…
