<br>
First of all, how much time do you have for the talk?<br>
Second, I would focus on mostly demos, that speaks a lot more then slides in this case.<br>
<br>
1) makes sense<br>
2) agreed, should do this completely in demo imo. You could also use some "project enhancement" plugins such as the code quality plugin to show how easy it is to do a lot of maven configuration.<br>
3) Not sure you should do that, to do anything fun you need to write some code which takes time but it's not really Forge related. If you do want to do another development demo, an osgi demo would be interesting. You could create a project using the plugin and then deploy to ACE using the ACE plugin for example. I do still need to make them compatible with 1.0.0 though, didn't know anybody was using them ;-)<br>
4) Yes! Spend a lot of time on this subject. Also show how you can test plugins and as much APIs as possible (dependencies, config, maven plugin/config API, code generation etc.) Again, live coding works best.<br>
5) You just proved that by writing a plugin on stage, so invite people to write some plugins for the projects they are working on.<br>
<br>
I think it's complete like this. You might also want to show the JBoss Tools integration which is pretty cool :-)<br>
