Re: [equinox-dev] Interest in Equinox Weaving

OK.  So that was a pretty good response in a relatively short period of time ;-)

It sounds like we have at least 3 folks interested in participating in some way to keep Equinox weaving from going dormant.  We will be evaluating the plan post Juno in the coming weeks/months.  I pencilled in a plan item for Weaving to use the standard OSGi WeavingHooks (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=377422).

Thanks for your interest!

As the project lead of AJDT, I can say that Equinox Weaving is crucial
for what we need to do.  That being said, in the past two years, we
have had very few problems with it and it has been serving our
purposes nicely as it is.  So, I personally don't have a need for a
redesign.  But reworking the implementation to use a more modern API
might be a good idea.

If no one else is stepping up, then I can have a look.
