FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

BZ Media Announces First-Ever Conference for Enterprise Eclipse Developers

Call for Speakers now open for EclipseWorld, scheduled for August 2005 in New York City

Huntington, N.Y., March 28, 2005 - BZ Media LLC, publishers of SD Times, today announced the launch of EclipseWorld™, the industry's first independent conference for enterprise IT profession using Eclipse-based tools and technologies. EclipseWorld will be held August 29-31, 2005, in New York City.

Alan Zeichick, Editor-in-Chief of SD Times and Conference Chairman of EclipseWorld, said, "The tools and technologies being developed by the Eclipse community are fast becoming the de facto standard for developing enterprise software. Whether for Linux, Windows or Unix, whether in Java, C++ or COBOL, the Eclipse community is right on the cutting edge."

Zeichick continued, "The goal of EclipseWorld is to help enterprise developers master this cutting-edge technology, and learn how to leverage the entire Eclipse ecosystem, from the Eclipse code itself to commercial and open-source plug-ins and platforms that leverage the Eclipse framework."

Eclipse is an open platform for tool integration built by an open community of tool providers. Operating under an open source paradigm, with a common public license that provides royalty-free source code and worldwide redistribution rights, the Eclipse platform provides enterprise software developers with tools frameworks, integrated development environments, test/QA tools, a business intelligence and reporting framework and, most recently, a rich client platform.

The EclipseWorld conference, to be held at the famous Roosevelt Hotel in Midtown Manhattan, will help enterprise IT developers, development managers, software architects, test/QA teams and other professionals learn how to use and apply Eclipse technologies throughout the software development life cycle.

The Eclipse platform is hosted by the Eclipse Foundation, a not-for-profit, member-supported corporation. BZ Media is an associate member of the Eclipse Foundation.

"Eclipse is pleased to welcome BZ Media's launch of EclipseWorld," said Mike Milinkovich, Executive Director of the Eclipse Foundation. "Adoption of Eclipse-based tools and technologies is on the rise, and developers and development managers are looking for education and training. We think that it's important that leading-edge media companies like BZ Media are taking the initiative with this enterprise-focused conference."

The conference will consist of one full day of tutorials and two days of technical classes. More than 400 attendees are expected at this exclusive, timely and topical conference. In addition, 20 sponsors are expected to demonstrate their Eclipse-based products, plug-ins and technologies at a separate expo hall.

The Call for Speakers is now open at www.eclipseworld.net. Proposals for full-day tutorials and technical classes are due by April 18, 2005.
