Earlier we had been discussing if EMF Search could be recommitterized with Sphinx folks. I'd therefore like to put the following thing clear:
I'm very happy to see that Tristan and Emilien volunteer for continuing EMF Search. From a Sphinx perspective this is actually a perfect solution -- it makes sure that EMF Search will continue to exist and avoids that we get overwhelmed in Sphinx while we are busy with getting our own project started.
Once we will have achieved that, we'll be happy to make use of EMF Search and look forward to a fruitful collaboration.
I think it's important to provide relatively small grained reusable
components, but a single larger project could provide many of those.
Let's just see what boils out of Sphinx/Papyrus consolidation and
decide later.
Cheers,
Ed

Ed,
As I said earlier, EMF Search is an item which sooner or later will become a must
in Sphinx. So it would be a pity to let it die at this point.
On the other hand I have to say that we are currently focused on
getting Sphinx and the necessary consolidation work with Papyrus
Backbone started. I therefore cannot say yet when exactly we will have
time and resources to carry on with EMF Search.
Another question: would you say that EMF Search should be maintained as
is, i.e. as an "independent" modeling component, or could we also opt
for an integration of EMF Search right into the Sphinx codebase?
Best,
Stephan

Stephan,
I'll assume for the time being that EMF Search will be recommitterized
in the non-to-distant future.

Hi,
EMF Search could find a new home in the recently proposed Sphinx
project. It is actually something which we'll definitely need there.
Before letting it go for a termination review, I'd therefore like to
check if we can take care of it (I just need some time for discussing
this idea with the team). I'll let you know the about our decision asap
(something like next week). Would that work?
@Papyrus and Artop team members: What do you think?
we would like to take care of EMFatic.
That is we want to work on an Xtext-based implementation.
But we won't be able to start on it before end of this year.
Regards,
Sven

Hi,
Due to project inactivity, I plan to ask for termination reviews of EMF
Temporality, EMFatic, and EMF Search. If anyone has any concerns or
would like to step up, please speak up now.
By the way, Ecore Tools is in need of active committers as well, or at
the very least, a release engineering support. Volunteers will be most
welcome.
