[eclipse-pmc] [Fwd: slides to preview]

Title: Bjorn Freeman
Kim (committer), Jeff & Mike (eclipse.incubator project leads), and
the Eclipse PMC, (cc/ Mike)
Kim has requested that the Equinox Transforms Bundles graduate from the
incubator to the main Equinox code line. Looking at the draft of the
slides (attached), I see slide 5 - IBM/Rational is the only client -
and slide 9 - there is only one developer, also from IBM/Rational - and
slide 8 - there is no API.
- How can this be seen as having vibrant and diverse committer and
adopter communities?
(http://www.eclipse.org/projects/dev_process/development_process.php#6_3_Reviews
and
http://www.eclipse.org/projects/dev_process/development_process.php#6_3_2_Graduation_Review)
- And, without any APIs, how can this be seen as following the
purposes of the Eclipse Foundation, e.g., "supplying frameworks"
(http://www.eclipse.org/org/documents/Eclipse%20BYLAWS%202003_11_10%20Final.pdf;
section 1.1)
- Similarly, without any APIs, how does this have "balanced
progress in creating both frameworks and tools"
(http://www.eclipse.org/projects/dev_process/development_process.php#6_3_Reviews)?
Could you clarify how this is a "common good" framework rather than
code for a single company's products that just happens to be hosted at
Eclipse?
