| [ecf-dev] Announce:  REST API inclusion into ECF | 
Hi Folks,
I'm happy to report that the REST API work done by Holger Staudacher for 
his 2009 Google SOC project [1] has been reviewed and approved by the 
Eclipse Foundation IP team (see [2]), and as of this morning the api and 
test bundles have been committed/released to HEAD in the ECF CVS 
repository.  This new API will be included in ECF 3.1 (an upcoming minor 
release for us). 
I've added this bundle to the ECF core feature and map file, and it is 
now being built (by the old builder for the moment) for the ECF daily 
builds from HEAD.  I've also updated the project set files with these 
new bundles...see the ECF releng project in 
org.eclipse.ecf/releng/org.eclipse.ecf.releng/*.psf.
Also, Holger has agreed to become an ECF committer to support and extend 
this work, and I've nominated him for committership.  Existing 
committers please don't make the same mistake I did and wait to long to 
vote...the vote is only a week long and the foundation portal doesn't 
send multiple notices about voting.  So vote early and often :).
Thanks to Holger for the contribution and all the good work...both 
already completed and to come.
Scott
