-------------------------------
Theme and goals of the workshop
-------------------------------

The Eclipse platform (http://www.eclipse.org) is designed
for building integrated development environments (IDEs) for
object-oriented application development.  Building on the
success of the Eclipse Technology eXchange workshops at
OOPSLA 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2006, we invite original papers
that describe potential new uses of Eclipse and how the core
Eclipse technology can be leveraged, improved and/or
extended for research and teaching projects.  Accepted
papers will be presented at the workshop.

Due to the popularity of this workshop in the past, this
year's ETX will be a 1.5 day event.  Workshop topics include
(but are not limited to) the use of Eclipse for:

- IDEs
- supporting the software development process
- debugging or testing
- design requirements/specification
- modeling environments or frameworks
- aspect-oriented programming
- program analysis and transformation, such as for
    refactoring, optimization, or obfuscation
- computer-based learning
- software engineering education
- teaching foundations of object-oriented programming
- courseware
- teaching an introductory undergraduate programming course
- web service applications
- rich client applications
