| [mmt-dev] Changes for M2M to MMT transition | 
Hi
I've now got the requisite write access for MMT CVS and set up the web 
pages adopting some additional technology from MDT. I think that 
http://www.eclipse.org/projects/project.php?id=modeling.mmt and 
http://www.eclipse.org/mmt are now largely correct. Please report issues.
Mission.
I've eliminated the overview statement that the project provides a 
framework for MMT in favour of a simple starement that the EMF 
infrastructure is used. It would be nice to provide a common API for 
transformation invocation with models and meta-models, but we seem to 
survive without it. If anyone has time, see if your favourite code can 
be generalised to suit all transformation engines.
Names.
I'm trying to rationalize various qvtd/qvto spellings as qvtd/qvto.
Downloads.
Symbolic links do not work for the downloads area, so I've copied ATL 
and QVTo downloads across. Please adjust your releng builds to promote 
to mmt/xxx/downloads/.../m2m-xxx... rather than 
modeling/m2m/xxx/downloads/.../mmt-xxx... and either delete your old m2m 
download trees or make them symbolic links to mmt.
The download script accommodates renaming so it is not necessary to 
rename e.g. m2m-atl-Update-3.2.1.zip to mmt-atl-Update-3.2.1.zip; just 
use mmt from Juno RC1 onward.
Metadata.
There are a variety of metadata entries that need redirecting from 
modeling/m2m to mmt. I don't have acess to these, so unless you care to 
nominate me as a releng committer for your projects, I will need to keep 
prompting you to make improvements that I can make quicker than I can 
communicate.
Wiki.
Again many entries may need redirecting. For instance the infrastructure 
expects an MMT-ATL-FAQ page, so ATL should create or redirect this page.
[If you want to develop out the PHP pages, I can recommend Zend Server 
Community Edition 
(http://www.zend.com/en/products/server/downloads?src=downloadb) to get 
a server running. Checkout selections of /cvsroot/org.eclipse/www to 
e.g. C:\Program Files\Zend\Apache2\htdocs and use the Eclipse PDT 
editor. I was making useful progress within about an hour despite 
minimal PHP/server background.]
