[cross-project-issues-dev] Fwd: [modeling-pmc] Ed Willink standing down from MMT, OCL, QVTd, QVTo

FYI,

Unless someone steps up to maintain these projects and their contributions, the train will badly impacted.

The yellow projects below directly downstream via requirement dependencies on OCL:



The following are transitively downstream:

Hi

Further to my comment on https://gitlab.eclipse.org/eclipsefdn/helpdesk/-/issues/4418 please do whatever is necessary to accommodate my non-participation in ongoing support for MMT, OCL, QVTd, QVTo.

I regret that I no longer have the necessary enthusaism to chase the incessant infrastructure changes inflicted by the EF without any consideration for supporting unfunded projects. The recent changes seem to me ill-considered and detrimental. I get no satisfaction from degrading my projects and can hardly be expected to do so in my own time. Sadly the complexity of some bad historical decisions regarding project containerisation result in flawed webmaster actions that just seem to provoke endless rows and half actions in attempting to resolve them. My attempts to help seem to just result in stress all round.

I hope that some way can be found to keep OCL and QVTd going. (QVTo still has a project lead but no releng.)

I propose to keep a foot in the door with MoDisco and provide solutions to some of the inter-project chasms that Polarsys does not seem to have resolved.
- sample reflective graphical model editor
- model type hierarchy view (Ecore/UML/Pivot/... rather than just Java)
- 'EMF' model search

    Regards

        Ed Willink
