Re: [gef-dev] Fabian Steeg to help lead Zest

[Anthony Hunter <anthonyh@xxxxxxxxxx>]

"Since we are bent on a major version
change to Zest breaking all existing Zest users, concrete plans would be
useful. "

That came off at rather harsh. What
I meant is that we will break Zest users from Helios by a major version
change. So we need to communicate to our users before the M6 API freeze
clearly what our plans are.

Cheers...
Anthony

That is good Ian, there is no official
process as there is no such hierarchy. We are all GEF project committers
and GEF is comprised of the Draw2d, GEF and Zest components. If you wish
to share the leadership of the Zest component, that is fine (there are
only two Zest committers :-)). 

A reminder of our project plan at http://www.eclipse.org/projects/project-plan.php?projectid=tools.gef
. Since we are bent on a major version change to Zest breaking all existing
Zest users, concrete plans would be useful. 

Cheers...
Anthony

I would like to nominate Fabian Steeg as co-lead for the Zest component
in the GEF project.  While this is more symbolic than anything else
(I'm not sure there is a formal 'lead' for component in the Eclipse Development
Process).  Fabian is doing a majority of the work on Zest these days
and he is showing great judgment.  Fabian has an excellent understanding
of Zest and has been working on the transition to Zest 2.0.  Having
Fabian help lead Zest will make it a much better component! 

I don't think there is an official process for this, but I assume that
Anthony (GEF lead) and I both need to give a +1.  (This e-mail is
of course my +1). 

cheers, 
ian
