Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed

Hi Folks,

Every year...typically after EclipseCon...I try to clear inactive ECF
committers from the EF committer roles.   I would like to do that again
this year.   ECF currently has 10 committers listed on the EF portal
[1], and only two of them are currently listed as 'active' (based upon
recent source commits [2]).

If you are an inactive committer and wish to remain an ECF committer for
the rest of 2014 and beyond, please either respond here or contact me
directly at slewis at composent.com.  During April, I will try to
reconnect with each inactive ECF committer and find out from them
whether they would like to continue to be listed as a committer...and if
so what their plans and availability are around future ECF work.

Thanks,

Scott

[1] http://portal.eclipse.org
[2] Note that it's not at all necessary that contributions by
committers...or others...be restricted to code contributions.
Documentation, tutorials, etc are equally...if not more...valued by me
and the community.  The 'active' flag on the EF portal is just easier to
compute by counting source commits to git repo.

hi Ashu Rashid,

Since you want to head start with eclipse tooling i would like to share few
things that i found last few days.if you interested about eclipse based
tooling you better go through these[1]-[14] tutorials because they really
helped me to understand this topic. understanding about OSGI modularity[1]
and also OSGI services[2] will help you to get your hands onto OSGI remote
services. then get to know about OSGI remote service Developer
workflow[3][4] is very important as well. so next one little be little bit
hard caz i merely found tutorials regarding this which is eclipse tooling
so i suggest you to go through this links to understand about eclipse
plugins[6] and ui tools this will help you somewhat.. but for the rest of
other steps you should refer eclipse core code base and ECF code
base[15].and also i found many useful links i will send you those while you
working(hard go through my browsing history).And there are some especial
tutorial slides with ECF source repo they might help you to understand
about ECF as well.

Thanks Scott for your kind reply.
I have seen the discussion on ECF GSOC proposal by Sakith Indua. In any
case, I would like to  contribute towards ECF later on because I'm very
passionate towards it. Will this be possible?
Thanking you,
Ashu Rashid

Absolutely.   The way ECF works is that people that wish to contribute
can just begin contributing...often through identifying and then fixing
bugs, or adding to the documentation, then making code contributions.
Everything is in the open, so this is not as difficult as it might seem
for a new contributor.   We can and will help you get oriented, find
various resources, etc.   This list can always be used, but we can/will
have individual meetings and/or conference calls if necessary and desired.

Then, after getting some experience contributing, if you wish to become
an ECF committer the existing committers can/will nominate and vote to
add you as a committer.   The existing committers will of course want to
become familiar with your work, and through experience working with you
know that your contributions are of high quality...as well as know that
you are able to learn and use good open source/open project/open
collaboration principals.  For your reference, here's [1] a EF document
describing how the committer nomination and election process works.

But before all that, the important thing is for you to begin
contributing...on something that you find appealing and interesting.  So
the first thing to figure out is...what would you like to work on
first?  (e.g. bugs, docs, certain parts/APIs within ECF, etc).  Feel
free to ask questions about anything, of course, and we will try to help
you figure this out.

Scott
