[eclipse.org-planning-council] Exception Request for EEF

[Ed Merks <ed.merks@xxxxxxxxx>]

Distinguished Council,

I'd like to request an exception for including EMFT's Extended Editing 
Framework, EEF in the Helios release train. It's an important 
complementary tool to the highly used and deployed EMF.Edit framework, 
providing reusable polished forms-style support for editing model 
properties. This framework allows developers to generate high quality 
interfaces for Eclipse or RCP and as such will be an asset for the 
Modeling project specifically and to the Eclipse Platform generally; it 
helps put the rich into Rich Client Platform. It's developed and 
supported by folks from Obeo, an Eclipse Strategic Developer. With their 
past track record and experience developing and supporting EMF's compare 
framework, I'm confident they'll have no problems meeting all the 
obligations of being on the train.

Please consider making an exception. 

Regards,
Ed
