[barbara_hartel]

When I arrived at EclipseCon Europe in Ludwigsburg this year, I was looking for the registration desk at the entrance where it was the year before. Then I realized that this year also a further part of the conference center is used and a lot of peoples where queuing up in the back of the conference center for registration. It was the European Eclipse community's biggest event so far. The 10^th birthday of Eclipse conference.

There were quite some sessions and tutorials with contribution from SAP employees. For example

•  A very easy to understand tutorial to Git and Gerrit, the Eclipse Hacker's Guide to the Git Universe. And a further session about EGit, the EGit 1.0 and Beyond.
