Re: [actf-dev] Validation component

[Yeliz Yesilada <yesilady@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Kentarou,

It's good to hear that the Web validation part of aDesigner will be  
part of ACTF.

I will look into the validation code  
(org.eclipse.actf.examples.adesigner.eval.html ), but would it be  
possible to arrange a *technical* tele-meeting (a meeting oriented  
for developers) so that you can give us a broad overview/introduction  
to this part of the aDesigner code?

Regards,
Yeliz.
