Description Pierre-Charles David CLA 2014-03-17 11:22:00 EDT 
The product descriptions which appear at https://projects.eclipse.org/releases/luna/details are used to decide which are the "exciting new features in Luna". See the discussion at https://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/cross-project-issues-dev/msg10294.html

The current entry for Sirius reads as: "Release as part of Luna."... We should provide a more descriptive and attractive text.

The source of this text is in the project meta-data editable through the PMI.

The description visible at http://www.eclipse.org/sirius/overview.html could be used as a starting point.
Comment 2 Pierre-Charles David CLA 2014-04-22 09:59:56 EDT 
New version published at https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/modeling.sirius/releases/1.0.0:

"Sirius allows architects to easily create their own graphical modeling workbenches by leveraging the Eclipse Modeling technologies, including EMF and GMF. Based on a viewpoint approach, it makes it possible to equip teams who have to deal with complex architectures on specific domains (industrial systems, software applications or the organization of large companies)."

I've had no negative feedback or improvement ideas, so I'll consider this one close for now. We can always improve the description at any time, but at least now we have one which gives a rough idea of what the project does.
