[eclipse.org-planning-council] Request for Ecore Tools Inclusion Excepti

[Ed Merks <ed.merks@xxxxxxxxx>]

Esteemed Colleagues,

The Ecore Tools team is not very active anymore and they had trouble 
figuring out how to promote their M5 build.  Cedric helped promote it 
for M6 and he intends to include it in the Amalgamation package.  For 
those who don't know, Ecore Tools provides a tailored GMF graphical 
editor for Ecore.   Without it, there's effectively only the crude 
Sample Ecore Editor, which just isn't enough.  Ecore Tools was part of 
Galileo and I believe it's very important that it be part of Helios.  I 
personally rely on this too for maintaining model diagrams for Ecore and 
GenModel.  I've been granted committer status on this project so that I 
can personally ensure that any changes necessary to keep the builds in 
good shape is something I can commit myself.  Please consider granting 
an exception.

Cheers,
Ed
