There are three reviews wrapping up on February 29/2012.
First up, is the Orion [1] project with their 0.4 Release Review
[2]. Orion's objective is to create a browser-based open tool
integration platform which is entirely focused on developing for the
web, in the web. Tools are written in _javascript_ and run in the
browser. Great care has been taken to provide a web experience for
development, rather than to recreate the traditional desktop IDE
experience in a browser tab.
Next is a combined 0.8.9 Release Review [3] for EMF Client [4] and
EMF Store [5]. The EMF Client Platform is a framework to build
EMF-based client applications. EMFStore is a model repository for
EMF.
EclipseCon is coming in a little over a month. Register [6] today!
I've been working on a new "Project Status" tool [7]. This tool lets
you quickly review some key metrics about Eclipse projects in a
handy tabular format. It currently shows the Git migration status,
liveliness, and release train participation status of the projects.
I'm considering adding some metrics regarding completeness of
project metadata, along with some other liveliness metrics based on
Bugzilla activity; those features will come later.
For now, access to the status is restricted to committers only. Once
the bugs have been worked out, we'll expose it to the world.
Committers, please have a look and open bugs against
Community/Process if anything seems out of place.
Thanks,
Wayne
