[eclipse-ide-wg] Eclipse Mylyn tests infra needs investments or will be retired soon
|
Dear Eclipse IDE WG,
Let me inform you about the situation with the Eclipse Mylyn project,
because it provides valuable additions to Eclipse IDE scenarios.
As you may know, Eclipse Mylyn was going through hard times and was
revived by a group of enthusiasts about a year ago. It is now back in
SimRel and has regular releases.
However, It is still noticeably understaffed. Moreover, with the
stepping back of the company [1] that established Eclipse Mylyn along
with all the tests infra we have a risk of loosing the ability to
execute the most part of our integration test suite [2]. Every release
we need to upgrade 3rd party libraries to be aligned with SimRel, and
without integration tests, the viability of the Eclipse Mylyn project is
in question.
Dear Eclipse IDE WG, are you interested to support Eclipse Mylyn with
additional resource pack [3] or in other terms?
Please feel free to respond to the Eclipse Mylyn team in any way you like:
* this email thread
* discussion at GitHub [2]
* any other ways
Thank you for reading.
Alexander Fedorov,
Eclipse Mylyn Project Lead
