Re: [equinox-dev] Equinox Subprojects

[Thomas Watson <tjwatson@xxxxxxxxxx>]

On this note I completely agree with John.  There are plenty of days where I would have liked for all of Equinox to simply have stayed under the Eclipse Project ;-)

In my experience this creates quite a bit of non-trivial additional management overhead to have an independent project. When Equinox was split out of Platform it created a major ongoing effort of separate release reviews, plans, release train checklists, ip logs, etc. If someone wants to do it, knock yourself out ;) I really don't see a problem with the status quo, apart from the obvious equinox security component that needs to be terminated (code was already moved into rt.equinox.bundles).

Just to be clear, I’m not pushing for this to happen. That was just a thought triggered from Wayne’s comment.

Whatever is currently in the rt.equinox.p2 repo stays with the p2 project IMO ;-)

Personally I don't see the advantage of making p2 a separate project under RT, but if the p2 leads want to do it it is fine by me.  I don't think it will give you any more freedom than you have today.

I certainly wouldn't be opposed to making p2 its own project, but how much extra overhead in involved (managerial -- release, docware, etc... and technical -- builds, platform contribution, etc..)?  Also, there are a few components (simple configurator for example), which are kinda p2 and kinda platform and sorta equinox. I guess Pascal and Tom would have a good idea of where to place these things (they're in p2 right now).

cheers,
ian

That's what I was thinking.
