Re: [ecf-dev] EMF requirements for ECF

[Scott Lewis <slewis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Markus,

Could you please put the info you give below on the ECF download page?  
Basically, people just need to know what/where EMF parts are that will 
satisfy requirements (even if just pointing back to Galileo once it's 
there)...so all we need to do is point people to a minimal distribution 
of EMF that will always work...is there some distribution/feature of EMF 
that has the ones we require but not all of EMF SDK?  If so we should 
point to that...otherwise recent/current EMF SDK.

Thanks,

Scott
