Despite the earlier decision to limit passengers
on the train, what is the downside of letting these folks board?

Doug,
When we formed Callisto at the last meeting, we decided (http://www.eclipse.org/org/councils/20050823PCMinutes.html)
that "participation
in this initial train is limited - not everyone who wants to join will be able
to join this year. Assuming success, the process will be opened to additional
projects next year. ... What does it mean to be "on" or
"off" the train? First, any project is welcome to release
simultaneously with any other project. The existence of the release train does
not prevent, e.g., Mylar, from
releasing at the same time as the Platform."
Hence MTJ and NAB are welcome to release simultaneously with Callisto, but will
not be included in Callisto this year. (Unless the Council changes its
decision.) Sorry and FYI.
FYI, I have a couple of sub-projects in incubation right now
(Mobile Tools for Java and Native Application Builder) that have expressed
interest in being on the Callisto train. The Target Management project
also hopes to release some code in this timeframe. This is new
information from the last planning meeting.
