Dear all,
Together with Oliver Kopp from Winery,
we discussed recently about the current state of
Eclipse SOA projects. We were wondering where the
various projects were in terms of future plans,
current status and so on. It’s been really quiet on
this list and within the projects themselves so it
would be great to get an updated view of the SOA
landscape.
I will start with Mangrove. The Xerox
Research Centre Europe where I work has recently
been bought by Naver and it has become Naver LABS
Europe, effective tomorrow. This is super exciting
for many reasons, one of them being that Naver LABS
are much more into open-source than Xerox was. Our
new updated page is here:
http://www.europe.naverlabs.com
Now back to Mangrove. While it is being
used in our research here in the Centre, we had a
hard time improving it in the open, in the
open-source arena. In fact, it has evolved a lot and
is being used in a number of scenarios, however we
have been very shy about contributing such
evolutions in open-source. This may change in the
medium future. For information, a few recent
publications involving Mangrove:

with a number of other papers soon
available (I can send them to you if interested), in
venues such as BIS 2017, BPM 2017 and ER 2017.
Looking forward to hearing about your
projects!
Best,
Adrian.
