[stellation-res] Merge Discussion

For those who are interested but haven't seen it, Mark's posted a far, far better analysis of the "true merge of compounds" on the Wiki, replacing my previous mish-mosh of pseudocode (hey, I said it was rough working notes!).

The link is http://stellation.eclipse.org/twiki/bin/view/Stellation/MergeIssues

While I haven't digested Mark's analysis yet, I've got a couple of questions, which I've added in the 'Observations' section near the end. Further discussion should continue to take place there, but I wanted to give the list a heads-up.

On a related topic -- Annie and I have been working to combine our recent work and produce a consolidated codebase. As soon as we have a single codebase, we'll post it as a set of zipped plugin projects on the Wiki. As work on the merge fix progresses, updates will also be posted on the Wiki (either as additional plugin project zipfiles, or as Eclipse patches, depending on the nature of the change set). The goal is to shine some light on our in-progress work, invite others to apply eyeballs and propose fixes, and generally be as open as we can.

- Jim
