| Renaming makes sense for long-term clarity.
e4 is positioned as an incubator that will spin out technology to other projects. As such, e4 is not "a thing". The origins of a particularly technology are not that relevant 6 months down the road. As a thought exercise, what if something from e4 matures into EMF?
On that note, has there been much discussion around where the various bits should go? For example, there are a number of "core" things that may make sense to go to Equinox as friends of DS and the extension registry.

At the risk of creating a lot more work for ourselves, have we considered removing the "e4" designation in the package names as part of the move?

[eclipse-pmc] Requesting approval for move of bundles from e4 to platform |
As discussed in the past, we would like to move several bundles out of e4 into Platform, in order to process a 4.0 release this summer. The first step in the formal process is to have a "Move Review" to obtain Eclipse Foundation approval to move the affected bundles from e4 to Platform. A prerequisite to that review is to receive official, documented PMC approval for the move. As such, I am requesting approval from the PMC for this move. Details on precisely what is moving and what committers are affected can be found here:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/E4/4.0_Release_Process
Please vote and/or discuss. We can also discuss this on the call next week if desired, but given all the holidays I thought it best to start the process on this list.
+1 from me, obviously ;)
Thanks,
John _______________________________________________
