| [gef-dev] Removing old Zest git repository and build jobs & Removing inactive committers |
| Hi team, first, let me say that I am very glad we have renewed our efforts in properly integrating the Zest2 code base to GEF4. I think that will definitely bring GEF4 forward and I hope we can keep that pace for a while. The Cloudio migration is nearly completed (I have not pushed anything yet, but I have come quite far locally) and that might make it easier to look at the rest. However, while we have ported the complete Zest2 code base to the org.eclipse.gef4.git repo (including its history), we still have the old org.eclipse.zest.git repo in place. The same holds for the gef-zest-nightly and gef-zest-integration build jobs on hudon.eclipse.org, which are no longer needed either. I have the fear that potential adopters might get mislead by these and would thus propose to remove them. Any objections? Another important point: the portal flags the following committers as inactive: Nick Boldt, Alex Boyko, Ian Bull, Anthony Hunter, Cherie Revells, Stephan Schwiebert. According to Anthony, Nick Boldt, Alex Boyko, and Cherie Revells are inactive IBM committers that may be removed. Ian Bull has at least participated in the project lead election so I would consider him as still active, the same of course holds for Anthony. Stephan Schwiebert has contributed Cloudio but does not seem to have been active thereafter, he also has not participated in the latest elections or the recent Cloudio related discussions. I think every Eclipse project depends on the active involvement of its committers. If I do thus not obtain a negative response to this announcement within the next 7 days, I will remove the committer status of Nick Boldt, Alex Boyko, Cherie Revells, and Stephan Schwiebert by November, 1st.
