Hi Daniel,
I would be happy to receive any assistance from the community once
Nebula gets approved/established. But that must also be tempered by the
charter and guidelines for Nebula. Nebula will be a test-bed for SWT
widgets and therefore Nebula widgets will have to abide by the SWT
requirements as well as SWT API paradigms. Some of the more nefarious
requirements include J2ME CLDC support and accessibility support. Any
code contributed to Nebula must support these requirements (or come with
a developer willing to spend the time to support them).
On a related note, I have been working on a table widget that will be
part of Nebula (assuming Nebula is approved and established).

Hi Chris,
I don't understand the Eclipse proposals process. The page at
http://www.eclipse.org/proposals/ refers to Nebula as a stale proposal,
which I find rather worrying. What has to happen now, so that the project
can begin? Does a more detailled status page exist?
Bye,
Michael

Thats the only page (AFAIK). I believe the proposal is marked as stale
simply because its been a long time between the proposal and the
creation review. I'm going through necessary internal reviews before I
can continue with a creation review. I don't believe the fact that its
marked as stale is anything to worry about.
