What conferences would you be targeting? OMG conferences?
Academic conferences? Other?
While I think that Ice looks like pretty good stuff, I am worried about
its general prospects, given the general climate of the IT sector.
In the past 8 years, with the rise of the Web and also the concerns about upgrading systems for Y2K, there were many opportunities
to introduce new software technologies and get them accepted and deployed, even
if they were rough around the edges (or even half-baked!). Look at al the web products,
things Linux, etc. that sprouted in the past 8 years as a result, and were refined over time
after they grabbed some market share.
These days, IT budgets are getting slashed and managers are very hesitant to put any resources into new and unproven technologies, even if they are very good.
I hope that Ice can survive, even in this climate.
