on Apr 29th, 2009Plug-in vs Bundle
I couldn’t resist reposting this great slide from Bernd’s, Chris and Martin’s presentation “OSGi for Eclipse Developers“. Check it out yourself.

As I suggested to Chris, it seemed like his presentation was implying it the other way around. I think the defense is OSGi and you should take an image from the movie the Waterboy, where Adam Sandler as a middle linebacker crushes the Eclipse side.
(I particularly love the scene in the movie where the Quarterback is begging Adam Sandler’s character to not hurt him from the line of scrimmage.)
Everything will eventually be OSGi… resistance is futile…
And it’s still a Blugin!
Great Post!
Lets start a fight again about the bundle vs plugin thing. And the winner takes it all. So if there are more +1 for bundles than PDE has be renamed to BDE
+1 for bundle
+1 for bundle!
I’ll blog about this in a bit, but my presentation was trying to say that there is a struggle between the two communities. In the picture above, the ball is the same, it’s just one community calls it a different thing.
