Re: [e4-dev] Demo?

[Kevin McGuire <Kevin_McGuire@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi David,

I agree with everything you said and
am glad people are thinking about this.  As you say, it's extremely
important.

My plan today is to send out a note
on the status of the CSS work.  I've been heads-down on this to get
it into the form that others can start to get involved.  I think that's
now true.

What I'd like to see at this point across e4 is that people start picking
up the work to see what can be done with it.  I'm thinking back to
Kai's CSS demo - it was a real boost to see someone else use it for a problem
they were trying to solve.  So aside from this being a healthy validation
of the work and a force to shape it with real requirements, it's also a
great way to build community and interest.

To that end, I would *love* is a community
organized demo of any of the e4 work, maybe shown at a BOF at EclipseCon.
 This is best if driven from people who aren't the main committers
on the technology.

I'm going to escape soon for the holidays
and then plan on getting more "vocal" in January.

Regards,
Kevin

Thinking forward, clearly we'll need
to have some kind of new demos for EclipseCon and we should all be thinking
of that now.  In the shorter term ... do you have anything in mind?


Not in particular; I just noticed that we've probably been rather quiet
from the perspective of those outside and thought it might be a good time
to try to make some noise.

The CSS work looks like a good potential thing to talk about.  It
also looks like Yyves' modelled UI work has legs.  Those are my thoughts
right now.


Regards,

Dave
