| [tigerstripe-dev] Community Call Canceled tomorrow (01/28/08) |
|
Hi All, I have to cancel tomorrow’s Tigerstripe Community call
as I’ll be traveling. We made a lot of progress however this past week. Here is a
quick update: -
3rd party
.jar: Eclipse Legal has scheduled Velocity for Feb’08. We
are hoping to get Qdox’s last questionnaires in time for the same Feb
milestone. -
Annotations: we have an
early prototype working (Thx to Jim). At this stage we can annotate/decorate
any URI in the workspace. Jim is polishing a demo for early feedback. The next
step will be looking at integration with Tigerstripe. As it stands the
annotation framework will be completely generic allowing to annotate/decorate
any resource in the workspace. -
Mentors Intro: Steve, Ed
and I met with our mentors and another Cosmos member last Tuesday. We provided
an intro to Tigerstripe and got some nice feedback. o
We will explore integration with
Cosmos (maybe leading to a f2f in EclipseCon). o
The main recommendation from our
mentors at this stage was to “polish up” our API. A Stable,
properly designed API is a key to adoption of the project… so we
will polish it J. -
Tigerstripe API
refactor: Thanks to Richard a lot has happened already, however a
lot more is required. We are keeping track of all changes in apiRefactoring-notes.txt
in the base plugin. Changes range from renaming of classes and packages, to
more involved re-work around the lifecycle of the model artifact to ensure
integrity of the model, and true-decoupling of the persistence layer. We are
hoping to get to a first “integration build” late this week, or
early next week. At this time, we’ll probably start porting the testing
framework ( I’ll work with Jim this week to schedule a demo of the
Annotations stuff. Cheers, Eric |
