When I queried CVS on 10/8, I came up with 204 unique active IBM committers (made a change since 1/1/2007). Some committers
were active on multiple projects

Looking Ahead
Our work on the Platform project will be primarily driven by e4
and Jazz
We continue to seek to increase diversity in the platform
Eclipse Platform is the foundation of Eclipse. Benefits all members
Investment imbalance – IBM is still carrying too much of the load
e4 - An opportunity to get involved
Incubator for the technology for Eclipse 4.0
Unblock the desktop evolution
Create opportunity for others to get involved - 25 non-IBM committers on e4 work
already
Babel
Need co-lead
