[modeling-pmc] Re: Question related to the VIATRA2 GMT component
Title: Re: Question related to the VIATRA2 GMT component
Including modeling-pmc mailing list.

Hi Daniel,

You can start by verifying that contributions made to the VIATRA component and which are in the Eclipse CVS repository and/or available on the Eclipse download site were processed in accordance with the guidelines posted here: http://www.eclipse.org/legal/committerguidelines.php.  Specifically, see the “Due Diligence Procedures” section, which includes a link to the handy IP poster: http://www.eclipse.org/legal/EclipseLegalProcessPoster-v3.2.pdf

Unless the VIATRA component was started from scratch and all code contributed to CVS was done by Committers following the development process, VIATRA should have at least one contribution questionnaire in IPZilla: https://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/  At present, there are only 2 CQs in the IPZilla repository for all of GMT (GEMS and UMLX).

Some notes on VIATRA after a quick look in CVS and the download site:


It seems it will take some efforts on your part to fully come up to speed on the process and guidelines, which is the responsibility of each Committer to be aware of and follow.  Another point to consider is that they change occasionally, as you are undoubtedly becoming painfully aware, with increasing pressure on timely adherence.  Sorry if this seems daunting, but the cleanup of GMT components has become a top priority so that we can maintain the high standards the community has come to expect from Eclipse.

Best Regards,
Rich

Dear Ed (and All),

Many thanks for the clarifications.
We are ready make any adjustments you point out to fully comply with Eclipse requirements in short amount of time.

Please contact me if there are additional VIATRA-specific issues.

Many thanks,
Daniel

Varro,

I'm not sure anyone has identified issues specific to each component. Just general issues, like not marking downloads and the website to indicate the components are incubating. Including unreviewed third part jars in CVS or in the downloads. I'm not sure which of these apply to VIATRA2 specifically. I'm also not sure what specific steps Janet would like to see taken.

It might make a lot of sense to create a new GMT module that's properly in the modeling project and to fill out CQs for any code that needs to be migrated from the old repository to the new one.

Does anyone have suggestions about the best concrete steps we need to take to more forward on a component by component basis?

Question related to the VIATRA2 GMT component




Dear Ed,

Jean Bézivin, the coordinator of the Eclipse GMT project, have recently reported to me (as being the project leader for the VIATRA2 component)
that the Eclipse EMO and the modeling PMC now require to adhere strictly to the general Eclipse rules for incubator projects as well.

He also writes that VIATRA2 is one of the 11 GMT components that is currently under investigation by the EMO / PMC.

I am contacting you to ask for further guidance on how to resolve certain problems related to the VIATRA2 component.
First of all, I would really appreciate if you could tell exactly who I should contact concerning this investigation.

Many thanks for your kind help,

Best regards,
Daniel
