[e4-dev] E4 / 4.0 Architectural Review

[Eric Moffatt <emoffatt@xxxxxxxxxx>]

There's a new wiki page at

http://wiki.eclipse.org/E4/40Review

This page contains the list of features/capabilities
that have been identified as being necessary to either allow e4 to provide
enterprise level UI's or need to be re-examined in an effort to correct
architectural deficiencies that were discovered too late to be addressed
before the 4.0 release.

This is a 'working document' and, as
such, is not linked to (yet) from the E4 main page. People that are interested
in participating are urged to read (and update!!) this page over the next
week. This will be a major discussion topic at next week's E4 call. Getting
these issues settled asap is important because the decisions we make may
fundamentally affect how we do things and will need to be in place *before*
we start seriously attacking component defects found during testing.

Most important would be to identify
whether the page covers everything that must be handled, if we miss something
it may jeopardize the release, depending on what we missed (really and
truly...if we forgot that we needed NLS support then 4.1 would be useless
as an enterprise platform). Please add anything you believe is required
to the wiki page above.
