A change of career direction
For quite a few years I have been a ColdFusion / Web Developer. I’ve got two weeks holidays, and then I will be going back to work to focus on Java (Eclipse) development. I must say I am pretty excited about this shift in direction, as I believe it will open many new doors in the future.

Will you be doing Eclipse Development? or Java development using the Eclipse IDE?
If doing Eclipse Development? I’d be interested to hear more about what you will be doing with the platform?

I will be doing Eclipse plug-in development, so it’s pretty exciting. Basically we are rewriting our existing ajax-based crm as an RCP application. The immediate change will also be on the backend - we writing our own server which the app will connect to via a socket connection. That immediately improves speed between client-server as we’re not using HTTP anymore.
pan69, same employer.

Will you be working with that same employer? If you go to a new company, what will you position be? Is that Java development for Eclipse (like plugins and stuff) or with the Eclipse?
