| RE: [geclipse-dev] adding ARC middleware to g-Eclipse |
Dear Marek >>Dear g-Eclipse team, >>We are one of the partners of KnowARC project >>(www.knowarc.eu), project >>developing and maintaining the ARC (Advanced Resource Connector, >>www.nordugrid.org) middleware, which is one of three >>candidates for EGI. >>We found your software g-Eclipse very interesting and we >>would like to >>ask if there is any way you would integrate the support of our >>middleware to your g-Eclipse tool? Well, nice question. g-Eclipse is an Open Source tool at Eclipse.org. So all our interfaces are open. The model is that we provide the basic functionalities and extension points. I nterested parties can use the existing framework and provides implementation for a dedicated middleware. We can give you support in the sense that we can consult you via mailing list, etc. But the implementation is on your side. But we are interested in more middleware implementation, so the support will be there. So integration in the framework can be supported, implementation work of the middleware is on your side. >> Our other question is >>related to the >>duration of your project. On your g-Eclipse website there is an >>information that your project will end this year. Is this the end of >>developement and support of g-Eclipse or the g-Eclipse will >>be developed >>and supported in some other, new project? g-Eclipse gots already funding from other projects like DORII and ENES. So the tool will be supported in the future, but not with the same manpower as before. But with the new projects sustainability is guaranteed. And with every middleware more, the framework will get more users and hopefully get its own momentum by the user community. So we are very interested in an implementation for the knowARC middleware.
