Re: [epf-dev] version backward compatibility

[Peter Haumer <phaumer@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Asterion.
These plug-ins can only be used with
an RMC license.  Once the next version of RMC is available there will
be a solution for RMC customers. 

Thanks and best regards,
Peter Haumer.

Subject	[epf-dev] version backward compatibility

Poking around the IBM site I came across useful plug-ins
built under 
Rational Method Composer.

Given my day job is in defence, I was most interested in the COTS, System
Engineering and the DoDAF plug-ins.  Of course, they didn't import
into 
epf-composer because of version discrepencies.

I was a little bemused about this because I would have thought that 
versioning would have been handled in some fashion other than simply 
baulking.  I understand that the standards and the schemas are in
flux but 
given the stated goal of publishing plug-ins for re-use it seemed a 
necessary evil to manage.

Presumably libraries of plug-ins will evolve.  I am currently building
bits 
an bobs for 12207, swebok, milstd-498, DO-178B, AADL, yadda.  (there
is a 
world outside of RUP).  The DoDAF one would slot right into the process
framework I am trying to develop at work - though I would need to tailor
it 
away from RUP - though I guess I'll have to draft one from scratch, which
erks ;)

I would love to contribute some of my dabblings to a central library as
I 
feel humbled by all of the good work at IBM/Eclipse.  Is there going
to be 
some sort of global process asset library for people to exchange method
and 
process snippets?
