How to contribute Eclipse development? [message #6109] Wed, 23 April 2003 04:01 Go to next message

Hi,


i am looking to whom i have to address the following message. I have
wrote to "news@eclipse.org" but without answer...

we are running project based on Eclipse (called "Exigen Studio"). Exigen
is the company we are working for (www.exigengroup.com).

We want to participate in the future Eclipse development or at least
synchronize
our efforts with Eclipse community. We implemented a support for templates
in Eclipse. As i heard from Eclipse 2.2 plan:

"( expanded 2.1 PDE deferred item) Add project templates. Eclipse should
provide a streamlined way to create projects using templates contributed
by plug-ins. These project templates would be able to populate the
projects with stock content so that projects don't start off completely
empty. PDE's current mechanism should be generalized, pushed down into the
Platform, and put to good use by JDT. [Platform UI, JDT UI, PDE UI]"

This is a subcase of template support we already developed.
We actually cover more: resource template and non-resource templates, also
have
template support for meta-projects ("solutions").

We can share ideas, binary plugins for Eclipse 2.1 and source code. The
outcome we expect
is some level of confidence that Eclipse template support will be in
accordance with what we
expect.

Regards,
Aleksey,
Programmer, Exigen

Except for simple patches (that should be submitted through bugzilla), the
developers' mailing lists (http://www.eclipse.org/mail) are the best place
to discuss this. If your contribution affects only one specific component
(e.g. PDE) you should use that specific list. Otherwise, if your
contribution has widespread impact (or if you don't know which Eclipse
component(s) is (are) affected), the eclipse-dev list would be appropriate.

HTH,
