Hi again,

As Nick says, EMF QVF is moving to Athena as well. So we can likely get others to help too.

We can follow the recent platform p2 zips only as well. EMF QVT is probably going to do the same.

Cheers...
Anthony

Nick, 

do you know what's required to get javadoc generated in the doc plugin? (i.e. what parts are not implemented yet). I could take a stab at some of this. 

I got myself setup with Athena today, and I'm pretty impressed with what it can do.

cheers,
ian

Well, FWIW, not everyone's worried about javadoc in their doc plugin, or supporting legacy zip file formats (sdk and runtime "runnable" zips).

EMF-QTV moved this week. MWE, Xpand, Xtext, OCL are coming soon.

The revolution will be Hudson'fied. :)

OK,

Athena is a non-starter until the JavaDoc generation is fixed. We can tackle these in Helios when the other modeling projects start to take advantage of the new Athena technology.

There are three missing pieces if you want to have the exact same
experience w/ Athena as you do w/ Modeling:

a) javadoc generation in .doc plugins is broken - I'd argue you don't
need it if you use Eclipse and install the sources instead. Isn't the
source navigation in Eclipse (and javadoc view) WAY more useful than the
canned, generated javadoc in Help?

b) Galileo .build file won't be automatically updated, but you only need
to do that by hand, what, 4 more times between now and February? (2 RCs
and 2 GAs). For Helios we'll set something up.

c) Publishing is MUCH simpler. You need a properties file, a boilerplate
promote.xml, and an entry in your crontab on build.eclipse. C'est tout!

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Common_Build_Infrastructure/Publishing

Oh, and until I set up the weekly tag&release automation you use for GEF
on emft.eclipse as part of the Athena system (see (c) - this'll be
another crontab entry you control) you'll have to go back to manually
tagging & releasing from within Eclipse using the releng tools plugin.

But as to setting up a GEF build in Athena, there's already one for 3.5:
