I'm going to be working on a context bridge for EMF and
graphical editors. This is a Mylyn and Tasktop project but
obviously overlaps quite a bit with Modeling efforts.
Please see
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Mylyn/Modeling_Bridge
for more but the basic idea is that you will be able to get
task-focussed slices of an EMF or UML model in the same way that
Mylyn gives you task contextualized focus for your overall
workspace. The idea is to support those larger models that are
difficult to grok and work with all at once. See David Green's
blog from a couple of years back for more on the basic idea.

huh? There are a lot of challenges involved and I'll be posting
on the forums or dev-lists as appropriate to let people know as
the functionality gets into place, but I wanted to see if there
were other folks out there interested in the approach and who'd
like to share ideas or kick the tires. I think Papyrus folks
might be particularly interested.
One this I could really use are large public (i.e. no
confidentiality issues) EMF / UML models for design targets and
demos. Any source or ideas for larger models would be
appreciated.
