Dear
all,
Together
with Oliver Kopp from Winery, we discussed recently about
the current state of Eclipse SOA projects. We were wondering
where the various projects were in terms of future plans,
current status and so on. It’s been really quiet on this
list and within the projects themselves so it would be great
to get an updated view of the SOA landscape.
I
will start with Mangrove. The Xerox Research Centre Europe
where I work has recently been bought by Naver and it has
become Naver LABS Europe, effective tomorrow. This is super
exciting for many reasons, one of them being that Naver LABS
are much more into open-source than Xerox was. Our new
updated page is here:

Now
back to Mangrove. While it is being used in our research
here in the Centre, we had a hard time improving it in the
open, in the open-source arena. In fact, it has evolved a
lot and is being used in a number of scenarios, however we
have been very shy about contributing such evolutions in
open-source. This may change in the medium future. For
information, a few recent publications involving Mangrove:

with
a number of other papers soon available (I can send them to
you if interested), in venues such as BIS 2017, BPM 2017 and
ER 2017.
Looking
forward to hearing about your projects!
Best,
Adrian.
