FW: [tools-pmc] RE: Eclipse Visual Editor project
|
Something for the agenda for today's
call....
Doug.
Tools
PMC,
I
was actually under the impression that the VE project was “under repair”, and
that things were improving.
Any
news on how things are progressing? We have an active interest in participation
below. Who can help Radu get involved in the project?

Visual Editor project
Hello
Mike,
I'm very sorry to disturb you but the lack of answers from the
Visual Editor newsgroup left me with no other choice. I am a happy user of the
Eclipse IDE and among other Eclipse projects I use Visual Editor. As you might
know this project was abandoned by the foundation about 2 years ago (you know
the reasons better than me and I'm not judging this decision). The problem is
that during those two years some developers tried to contribute patches and
versions suitable for new Eclipse releases but there is actually nobody with CVS
commit rights on the Visual Editor project willing to help in any way. As a
result, their code is available to download from sourceforge or other non
Eclipse sites ... I am willing to help this project because I know how
usefull is for the development or Java GUI applications and that's why I'm
searching for a solution to keep it alive. Maybe someone from the foundation can
help by updating the CVS and the builds of this project with the contributed
code, or maybe the commit rights can be given to somebody who can work on the
project. Or maybe there is some other solution ...
Again, sorry for the
email but the situation is very disturbing for the users of the Visual
Editor.
Thanks for a reply and keep up the good work, Radu
Dumitrescu
