Re: [mdt.dev] Moving to Buckminster and Git

[Ed Willink <ed@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Kenn

For MDT/OCL:

We're happy to move to Buckminster; Adolfo is already working on it, so hopefully we'll be there for M1.

I don't see GIT as part of Helios Modeling Package install, and have just seen a GSoC email go past on improving EGit integration, so I suspect that EGIT is not ready for prime time. I have also observed significant concerns over GIT's bandwidth consumption on the servers. Both EGIT and JGIT are in the incubation phase, and while they no doubt offer useful benefits they are not essential. I would prefer to leave a transition to EGIT till after Indigo.

Team,

Congratulations again on a successful Helios release! Now that the dust has settled a little bit, it's time to start thinking about next year's release (Indigo).

At this point, I'd like to remind you that the Modeling PMC has decided that all Modeling projects should use Buckminster for their builds and that the Eclipse Foundation has chosen git as the preferred SCM system going forward. Project leads, please factor these initiatives into your plans; it would be ideal if each of you could let the team know whether/when you plan to make these transitions. Of course, it would be ideal to get this kind of work done sooner rather than later, before development begins in earnest again in September.

If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate share them.

Cheers,

Kenn
