All,
As a lot of you already know, the VE committers have just published the
first of what we hope will be several tutorials on extending VE. It's
listed as the first link on the VE home page under "What's New" or you
can just click:
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/indextools.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E /org.eclipse.ve.examples/org.eclipse.ve.example.customwidget /WebContent/index.html
*BUT WE'RE NOT DONE YET!* Here's what else we want to do:
1) Publish the current tutorial on the Eclipse.org article page.
2) Have a live code jamming session via web conference to help people
get started extending VE and to answer questions. (See the thread above
titled "Help extending VE"
3) Publish more tutorials as the community has needs.
What are the prerequisites in order for the above to occur?
1) We need feedback in order to publish the article for all of
Eclipse.org! We've created a PR in Bugzilla to track this. Please
attach your comments--both good and bad--to bug #88801
(https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=88801)
2) Gili will be on vacation for a few days, so sometime next week we
expect to do the live code jamming session. If you're interested in
this, please put your topic request and timezone in the "Help extending
VE" thread before then. We will be following up on this soon.
3) If you have a great idea, an outline, or even some ideas for some
text for another tutorial, please let us know! The most reliable
vehicle for communicating ideas is Bugzilla, so please add your feedback
there, either to the bug listed above, or to new bugs if you are
proposing a totally new tutorial.
Last, but not least, although there are three primary authors listed,
the reality is that all of the active committers and several of the
newsgroup regulars have contributed, wittingly or not. :-) Thanks to
all who helped get us to this point.
Best regards,
Dave Orme
