OSGi Summit 2022

Hi, OSGi enthusiasts!

This year the OSGi Working Group is pleased to announce the first ever OSGi Summit in Ludwigsburg, Germany. The summit will be held in parallel to EclipseCon from October 24th to 26th, 2022. The first day is OSGi Community Day and is a whole day packed full with talks on the newest things happening in the OSGi world, content about community and many other topics. On day 2 and 3 the OSGi Specification Project and the OSGi Working Group Steering Committee are meeting and there will be a Birds of a Feather session for all OSGi enthusiasts.

This year's speakers include, among others, Dirk Fauth from Bosch, BJ Hargrave from IBM and David Bosschart from Adobe, but the full agenda has something to offer for anyone working with OSGi 😉
