Greetings Fellow Eclipse Enthusiasts! I wanted to remind you that we are always on the look out for new topics and new speakers. If you have always wanted to try your hand at pitching a topic, why not give it a try at the Eclipse User's Group. We are a very friendly group! You can contact me directly if you would like to get on our calendar.

Great meeting tonight!!! Even with some technical difficulties it was still awesome to connect with the group and talk story about different projects everyone is working. It was also great to get a glimpse of Android. We'll try to schedule another Android session in the near future. Next Month we'll have a day meeting on Feb 17th. Thanks for all who attended and stay tuned for more details.

Bill ... I have an interest in JRuby. Please keep us informed. Would you be interested in presenting on JRuby sometime at the Eclipse Hawaii User's Group?

Yeah, I too was learning about JRuby at a Ruby conference in herndon, VA—it has some great advantages so far as handling of green threads and concurrency.

there are some very interesting plug-ins for eclipse, for example the static analysis tool for Java, FindBugs from University of MD. There is actually a guy doing his phd work there doing some similar things with Ruby syntax.

Nikolas, I'm anxious to hear about android and Eclipse. I think Josiah has messed with this some. Maybe you would like to present your findings early next year?

Dan, Thanks for being at the meeting today and participating. You bring lots to the table and its appreciated. At the meeting, you asked if pure Java topics could be discussed and the answer is absolutely YES. If you have one, lets get it on the topics list and plan for you to present.

Great meeting Greg! I enjoyed seeing Nate's creation and hearing from Josiah about the work he is doing with Eclipse. That was the first time I've seen Lego Mindstorm in action. Very cool stuff!

Hey Greg! I just installed the Android plugin for Eclipse! Let's see if we can get someone to speak about that or a similar topic in one of our upcoming meetings!

I'll be sure to make it to the next meeting!

We had a great meeting last night. Kevin English of Camber Corp took the group through a very beneficial overview of Ruby on Rails using Aptana. Kevin did a great job and showed the group how to build a simple Blog using Ruby ... All in about 30 minutes. I also learned that Ruby can run in a Java Environment (JVM) using JRuby.

We video taped the event and will post on our site, eclipsehawaii.org shortly. I'll post here when uploaded.

Thanks Kevin for a great presentation!!!
