Re: [polarsys-iwg] Review of Polarsys Proposal

Hi.

Here are a few remarks :

* links with existing IWG are mentioned in the Charter document, but not
  to Eclipse *projects*. Is it on purpose ? I think it would help to
  understand existing ties, for example with TopCased, etc.

* membership : by its nature (Industry WG), it seems rather obvious that
  membership is for corporations (or academic institutions). What about
  individuals ? (make it explicit even if not possible/welcome)

* The wiki documents generally lack links to other documents, standards,
  etc, which would help refining some of the concepts, acronyms and
  likes.

* Maybe some history on the past OPEES project could help understand
  why/who/where of this group (maybe it's obvious for those in the
  field, but may not be so clear for 3rd parties).

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
