Re: [ecf-dev] ECF 3.1 download?

Hi Youssef,

I am just wondering what new features will be there in ECF 3.1 .
There is a new Rest API [1]. There is/was quite a lot of work on both
the ECF remote services and the RFC119 work as well as a new
implementation of a distributed event admin [2]. As well there were
quite a number of bug fixes and small enhancements.
Can I finally share same file in same project to do real pair
programming with a team member or does ECF still lack this feature ?
It still lacks this feature. If you wish this particular feature to
progress further/faster, then I suggest you do something about it...e.g.
either by adding yourself to bugs/enhancements like [3] and contributing
to the effort your desired area.
As a volunteer-based, community-driven project we simply do not have the
resources to address all desires/needs...especially since we have a
number of disparate requests these days...from work on remote
services/distributed osgi, to work on VOIP, to work on rt shared
editing/to work on Google wave support. This is a good thing (as our
community is getting larger), but it does mean that we have to get help
from the community as well...as we are getting with the excellent work
this year from all four of the Google summer of code projects [4].
In the past, I've described the need for contributions to open source
project as "the early bird defines the worm" [5]. Recently, I've come
up with another way to put this that is perhaps more succinct:
"contributions rule".
If you interested in developing specific areas of ECF, and are wondering
how you can contribute (we have lots of needs...for everything from
folks to contribute to the ECF build, to work on various desired
enhancements, to more/other providers, to other things)...please do
speak up and/or contact me and we'll get you directly involved.

Hi Bryan,

nightly build?
No, not yet. Apologies for that. We have to introduce into the
builder support for building and copying to dev.eclipse.org
<http://dev.eclipse.org> ECF 3.1. This is complicated by the fact
that we are 1) right now finishing up the ECF 3.0.1 contribution
for the Galileo maintenance release, and 2) that we are switching
over to using Hudson/Buckminster builders. But nonetheless, I
will make sure that by the end of this coming week (9/14) that we
are building and deploying nightly builds of ECF 3.1 in
preparation for the upcoming release....and you should be able to
use them if you like.
I think I'm running into problems in 3.0 that have been fixed.
If you identify exactly which problems, I will attempt to make
sure that as many of them as possible are in the ECF 3.0.1
maintenance release (that is going out as part of Galileo 3.5.1
maintenance release).
Thanks,
Scott
Bryan
