Is BIRT being actively developed? Since the approval announcement there's
been very little communication. Is there activity? Will the BIRT team be
producing timelines and roadmaps similiar to the main eclipse project?

I'm just looking for something to wrap my fingers around.
Thanks,
-Chris

Chris,

Yes, we are actively working on BIRT and are in the process of getting more
information up on the web pages.

In the next few days, we will be posting details on what we envisage for the
initial release of BIRT. We will then be following this with details on the
XML Report Design schema and code postings over the coming months.

It's taking a little time to get the initial information up there as we get
the Eclipse project fully launched from our side, and as we build up the
necessary infrastructure. We anticipate increasing momentum as we work
through this startup phase.

How are you thinking of using BIRT?

Regards,

Thanks for your response.

We are looking at using BIRT in our RCP application. Both as a tool to
write 'canned' reports ourselves, and possibly to offer the BIRT Report
Designer for ad-hoc reporting within the RCP application.

The types of reports would be relatively standard financial kinda stuff
(JDBC or POJO/bean datasource). Charts are a big deal too.

Thanks,
-Chris
