[mdt-ocl.dev] Bundling of IMP Runtime by MDT/OCL Examples

[Ed Willink <ed@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Wayne

David Williams suggested that I check this scenario out with you.

We have finally got a 'text' editor available for use by MDT/OCL. This 
editor uses IMP Runtime which is not on the Helios train (and not in Orbit).

Since this editor does not have the same maturity as the rest of the 
MDT/OCL code, we are packaging it as an example for Helios, with a view 
to 'promoting' it after Helios. (This is a kind of Incubation within a 
mature project).

In order to avoid a dangling reference breaking the buckybuild we plan 
to bundle IMP Runtime within the MDT/OCL Examples Feature. IMP are happy 
for us to do this.

David points out that this means that IMP Runtime will fall within the 
remit of the MDT/OCL Release Review. Not having yet particpated in a 
Review, I have no idea how stringent the attention paid to an example 
will be.

I have started a separate thread on mdt-ocl.dev to discuss whether we 
shouldn't spin off an OCL Tools project post-Helios to establish a more 
officially Incubation area and avoid some unduely tight project 
depenedencies.

Are you happy with MDT/OCL bundling IMP Runtime in Helios?
