Re: [nebula-dev] NatTable -> Nebula subproject

[Wayne Beaton <wayne@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry to do this piecemeal...

Before we can move forward with creation, we have to deal with trademarking the project name.

Who owns the NatTable name? i.e. to whom is the trademark assigned?

I'm a little concerned that--owing to the similarity with Network Address Translation (NAT) Tables--asserting trademark on the name may be problematic (IANAL, so there's subtleties that I'm not familiar with). You may need to be prepared to change the name.

I just noticed the LGPL dependency (GlazedLists). Note that you cannot distribute LGPL-licensed code from eclipse.org. We can likely create a "works with" dependency on GlazedLists given that it is an optional feature.

We're reviewing the proposal.

Hi Wayne,

I moved the NatTable proposal into the standard template, attached. The Mentors section is not complete yet (Tom, Chris A - I think you guys had offered to be/find mentors before?)

Please let me know if you need me to reformat/fill in any more info.

Thanks,

Edwin

I assume that you've read the "Starting a new Project" Wiki page [1].

The next step is for you to provide the document to me using the standard template (be sure to keep the markup plain; I'm not sure what a Google Docs export will turn out like). Note that there are a few sections (Why Eclipse?, Mentors) missing from your document that need to be provided. We will need to identify some mentors for the project, but we can do that after the proposal is posted. Once I have the proposal in the standard template, I will get approval from the EMO executive director and then post the proposal for community review.

Hi all,

Wim, Mickael, Tom, and I just met and agreed that we will make NatTable a Nebula subproject. The NatTable EPP is here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Krpj0ceaWqP-WndbR1Ba79gwhGCbUHNspw-j9naYPQc/edit?hl=en_US

Wayne, please let us know what the next steps are to move forward with this.

Thanks,

Edwin
