The open source foundation shared all sorts of plans for future projects at its sold-out convention, held near San Francisco this week.

"Looking to build on the popularity of its Java development tool, the Eclipse open-source foundation is eyeing initiatives targeting everything from programming for embedded systems to working with standards organizations in the health care industry.

"Members of Eclipse on Tuesday detailed some of those proposed projects, as well as others in development, at the three-day sold-out EclipseCon show just south of San Francisco. The projects would be run through the open-source organization--which has seen a large pickup in participation from software vendors over the past two years--and build off the Eclipse application development tool."
