In my opinion, it is nearly always helpful to have your dependencies "encapsulated" as much as is possible (or, practical) but I realize there are limits where the costs don't out weight the benefits. > However the extra modularity would show in the P2 catalog.
This is true in one way -- the un-categorized view -- but remember that not everything needs to appear in a category (hence, there is usually not extra granularity in p2 catalog). Not sure which you meant, so just thought I would (try) to clarify. But, yes, modularity is good. :) Thanks, From: Ed Willink <e...@willink.me.uk> To: cross-project-issues-dev@eclipse.org, Date: 08/08/2016 12:26 PM Subject: Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] GEF Oxygen M1 contribution only partially today Sent by: cross-project-issues-dev-boun...@eclipse.org Hi Or should we be restructuring to have multiple better disciplined contributions? +1 MiniEMF, MiniGEF, MiniOCL, MiniMWE2 - no XText dependencies +3 FullEMF, FullGEF, FullOCL, FullMWE2 - with XText dependencies (MWE2 does this already; MWE2-runtime, MWE2-lang) We almost certainly have features with the required granularity, so the multiple contributions should be just a matter of different feature selections from a single build repo. However the extra modularity would show in the P2 catalog. Perhaps that would be an improvement too.

I feel that this attempt to bootstrap from nothing is going to make for some very tight late coordination. Can we have the Neon contributions available as in previous years? If enabled="false" is required to enforce announced participation, surely it would be better to apply it just after M2 to all projects that have made no SimRel commit since Neon?

The GEF (formerly known as GEF4) contribution to M1 is already prepared as well, but I had to disable it for now because it depends on downstream projects (namely e(fx)clipse and Xtext) that have not updated their contributions yet. GEF will thus not be available today but on Wednesday. Regards, Alexander -- Dr. Alexander Nyßen Dipl.-Inform.
