[eclipse.org-planning-council] providerName=Eclipse.org -> Eclipse XXXX

["Oberhuber, Martin" <Martin.Oberhuber@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

 

along the way of how to properly put "end-user" and "extender" into our

features (discussion after the last phone call), I came across another

thing that needs to be addressed:

 

According to the recent changes of the Devlopment Process, it seems

like we should change the "providerName" field of all our plugins and

features from "Eclipse.org" into "Eclipse XXXX Project" -- see section

"IP issues" on

http://www.eclipse.org/projects/dev_process/release-review.php

 

I did try this earlier, putting "Eclipse DSDP Project" into our plugins,

but noticed that this led to a weird experience in the about dialog:

we got our own icon there, where we had just been "sharing" the

Eclipse icon before.

 

I'm wondering what this group thinks about the issue? Should we

start changing the providerName right away or better wait?

Thanks,
