              Hi Claes, 
               
              Thank you for submitting for the
                plugin updates. I haven’t approved yet simply because I
                was sick and then unavailable, and now making up for my
                day job: I hope to be able to test and review after this
                week (over Independence Day holiday in US)  
               
              I am working on the server builds to
                fit with the new Eclipse storage (git) and make the
                contents of the language files more accessible by
                utilizing git more.  I have a Jenkins build but the
                build process takes too long right now to be practical:
                right now “daily” builds can take more than a day, and
                the process works on full source jars rather than
                changed files in a release for each project, leading to
                a lot of unneeded overhead.
                
               
              I will be putting out a build for
                03/2023 and 06/2023 in July that I build manually using
                the old method, but then switch over before 09/2023 and
                try to align with SimRel for drivers from that point.
                
               
              Regards,
              
               
              
                
                  
                  Hi Claes,
                   
                  I remember you well from many years ago - 2018 if
                    I'm not mistaken. You had submitted changes to the
                    Babel Messages editor.
                   
                  Gerald is a new committer, and he's been working on
                    the server-side, and producing the builds. I have no
                    issues nominating you as a committer if he agrees.
                   
                  @Gerald, would you like for me to kick-off the
                    process?
                   
                  Denis

                      I would
                          like to contribute to the Babel Plugin
                          project. However, since there are no active
                          committers to the project it is hard. I made a
                          similar attempt 2017 but lost interest for the
                          same reason. -There simply is not anyone that
                          has time to do code review. Beyond that, the
                          project is in really bad shape. I have it
                          building on my computer but there are a lot of
                          runtime issues.
                     
                    
                    
                      We have
                          used an internal version of the Message Editor
                          at our company but we will need to enhance our
                          NLS tooling soon and I plan to improve the
                          Tapiji bundles to achieve that. I could
                          continue to work on our internal version but I
                          rather do it on the Babel Plugins repository.
                          Currently, I see no real way to do that
                          though.
                     
                    
                    
                      If
                          possible, I would like to become a committer
                          to the Babel Plugins project. I have been an
                          Eclipse RCP developer since 2005 and I am also
                          a committer to the Eclipse BIRT project. I do
                          not have much time to spare, but I should be
                          able to get the project in a usable state at
                          least.
                     
                    
                    
                      Best
                          regards
                        Claes
