Re: [equinox-dev] Interest in Equinox Weaving

Thanks Martin!

If there are interested committers on the AJDT project another option is to recruit them to participate in the Equinox Weaving project directly.  There are advantages to keeping it closer to Equinox.  For example, since it integrated directly into the framework using hooks it requires more knowledge about the framework.  Also if there is still sufficient interest in the project then I would be interested in seeing and perhaps helping migrate it over to using the standard OSGi R4.3 WeavingHook.

Hey Tom!

We are still using and consuming the latest bits and pieces from Equinox 
Weaving for AJDT and therefore also many of the Spring tooling projects.

So depending on the general interest it could be an option to move 
Equinox Weaving to the AJDT project after Juno (although I cannot speak 
for the AJDT project here).
