Re: [ecf-dev] Move to 1.1 foundation

[Scott Lewis <slewis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jeff,

Thanks for the clarification. 

The bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=257115  proposes 
that ECF move it's core bundles (org.eclipse.ecf and 
org.eclipse.ecf.identity) to foundation 1.1 because like Equinox we 
would like to use URI also (specifically for enhancement 
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=250717).

Rather than the full list I gave previously, we will likely only be 
updating the other ECF bundles to 1.1 as needed (in way you proposed).  
My understanding is that for all other ECF bundles it then doesn't 
matter much if they are 1.1 or 1.0 compliant because they all depend 
upon org.eclipse.ecf...but we won't update them if they don't directly 
require 1.1.  If there is subtlety here that I'm not getting then please 
let us know.

A question:  is it clear yet which Equinox bundles will be updated to 1.1?

Thanks,

Scott
