Minutes:

- Level of integration required to include ECF in the IWG package is still to be debated. There is agreement that the ECF code has value and is not feature overlapped with any other part of the IWG package. Let’s discuss the potential integrations and requirements to be included in the package.

o Concern is that Eclipse has had bundles (STP) in the past were there was 0 integration and it presented a confusing set of options to users.

o On the other hand, if the code is of value and something many users will require anyways – should it be included?

- Engineering noted (after scott had to drop off) that the ebpm is using ECF, in particular the distributed event updater – so this may be another path for ecf inclusion. Engineering stated they have been in touch with Scott about what else they can be doing.


There is a related Equinox enhancement request from Andrea on the eng.it team, that may also translate into an enhancement request for ECF (Andrea has been asked to open a similar request for ECF' distributed event admin...since this is an implementation separate from Equinox's...but that has not yet been done). Here's the Equinox enhancement request: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=302729

Also, for reference, here is further documentation on the ECF Distributed EventAdmin impl:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Distributed_EventAdmin_Service

Note that this is *not* part of the OSGi Remote Services spec/impl, but rather other SOA-related work that ECF has done. Like everything else ECF, it will run on multiple transport providers (XMPP, JMS, ecf generic, javagroups, proprietary, others).
