Riena already supports the CompositeTable from Nebula. All you need is to write a ridget. A Ridget is what the
controller deals with when "talking" to the widget in the View. There are already many ridgets in Riena and new ones can
be added by anyone. We can support you there when you want to implement it. Just open a bug and we give you hints on
where to start.

The project redView actually uses EMF Data binding together with Riena views and controllers. So it works :-). You find
more information on this in http://ekkescorner.wordpress.com/ I am not that much of a modelling person, but if you have
issues let us know or open a bug. Riena has its own binding API (model to ridget) but uses JFace under the hood. So what
JFace can do can also be accomplished in Riena (more or less)

Not sure what that would mean. Can you embedd CNF components into a regular RCP View. If so then it shouldnt be a problem.

If you look here http://wiki.eclipse.org/Riena_Downloads_–_Installation_– _Setup#Set_up_Riena_Toolbox there is a tooling
now for the Eclipse IDE called Riena Toolbox. The Riena Toolbox contains a convient editor for the assemblies but also
wizards for creating a number of Riena projects, so that you can play with them.

Hi Christian,
Ok, sounds good. I will need to dive in the pointers you give me.
