Hi Folks,
Although I haven't been making announcements for a while now, ECF has
been having regular releases for many years now. See the home page
[1]. Since the move to github, the ECF EF repo is here [2].
Just in case everyone was not aware, most of the ECF new development has
been taking place here for many years [3]. Most of the changes/releases
of [2] have been bug fixes and small API additions, mostly to support
Eclilpse IDE's use of ECF filetransfer, as well as other consumer's use
of ECF's impl of OSGi Remote Services and Remote Service Admin.
I wanted to inform all on this mailing list that although I'll remain
the ECF project lead and continue to support consumer's use of remote
services/RSA, I won't be doing much more in support of the Eclipse IDE's
use of ECF filetransfer.
If someone from the ECF community is interested in providing this
maintenance support for the Eclipse IDE then please let all know. It
would likely mean becoming an ECF committer and becoming familiar with
ECF filetransfer (which has a multi-provider architecture, currently
using Apache httpclient 5.x *and* the JRE httpclient impl) in the IDE.
So familiarity with http/https/ssl and p2 would be helpful to have as
experience. as well as some knowledge of the ECF codebase. I'm happy to
assist with this learning if necessary.
As I said, I'm not going anywhere and will continue to support this
codebase for OSGi Remote Service/Remote Service Admin and any other use
cases. I will also be continuing and intensifying development on
projects going on at [3], including etcd3 support, python<->java remote
services, grpc-based distribution providers, JaxRS distribution
providers, new things (e.g. RSA support in ipopo [4], a python based
impl of OSGi bundles and service registry.
Best,
Scott
