Re: [dash-dev] Revised home page and now a project plan too

Steve,

Well the tool has already "gone away" in the sense that no one is maintaining it actively. It works now, but it won't work or at least will not have been tested when Ganymede is released if nobody works on it. There is no evidence that that is going to happen. Thus, Bjorn is simply making a change to the project status to reflect reality. However, James is stepping up to the plate to offer a new direction for Monkey, possibly as a new project and I'm sure he'd be happy to receive or help direct any efforts you might want to contribute to the project.

Cheers,
Karl

I'm a Java developer who is happy with the Eclipse Monkey project as-is, and rely on it for my daily work in Eclipse. I don't think I could use Eclipse without it. My biggest concern is that all of these proposed changes will cause a currently working tool to go away.

Arnoud,
im a flex developer and find the javascript part of monkey quite useful. Will that part still be supported or is the project moving in another direction?
James has offered to restart the Monkey project (see other emails on this dev list).
For me its strange that a project like this isn't more popular. Being able to script eclipse is awesome!
I'm sure that James would welcome your participation and contributions... without committers, the project isn't going to go anywhere (as demonstrated by its lack of progress to date).
