Re: [gmf-dev] GMF-Tooling project lead

Hi Aurélien,

Athough I am not aware of what are the tasks Michael's team with work on, here are my 2c.
I don't think that changing of generator (for example moving to Acceleo) is a priority for GMF-Tooling. The current generator works well, and we are still able to maintain it without too much difficulty. Then I think the priority for 3.0 should be set on functional features and usability. However, if we feel that we should provide ability to use another generation technology - I think so -, then the 3.0 could include a first step to provide a way to plug generators, to propare the future.

Regards,

Hi,

That's good news that GMF-Tooling is reinforced.

A technical question:
You plan to modify the models, will you stay on the same technology (Xpand/QvTo)?

Otherwise, are you already began the work? If not, when is it planned?

Hi Team,

"Anthony, could you please approve upgrading the version of GMF-T to 3.0 for the Juno release? "

Well, I suppose the project lead would approve first. I am thinking Artem is not around again. We are still waiting for his approval for the release review. I am thinking it may be in the best interest of the project for Artem to step down as project lead and we make Michael Golubev the project lead. To be fair, we need to give the community a bit of time to reply back any concerns.

Michael, is it great that you now have a team of three of GMF Tooling. I have no opinion either way if GMF Tooling is 3.0 in Juno. I would proceed with the project plan and allow the community to comment.

Cheers...
Anthony

Subject:        [gmf-dev] GMF-Tooling in Juno -- can we plan for 3.0 (major)        release this year
Sent by:        gmf-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx




Hello, 

While we are waiting for a release review for GMF-T 2.4, I would invite everyone to put efforts into the planning for next release.

I am glad to confirm that for this year we have got a sponsorship from Avaloq Evolution AG, which is willing to support team of 3 developers working specifically on GMF-Tooling. 
I am creating the draft proposal of the project plan now, will commit it shortly and post the main proposed topics here for discussion. 

However, it is already clear for me that in order to deliver the new features we need Juno release to be a major one, thus 3.0 instead of 2.x. 
The reason is, we will have to change models significantly, and we will not be able to provide automatic backward compatibility with the models created for 2.4.x 
(we will of course follow the transition procedure from the past of GMF-T and will develop 'Migrate Model' actions to support migration of existing models). 

Anthony, could you please approve upgrading the version of GMF-T to 3.0 for the Juno release? 

Also I am not sure how we can add into the Bugzilla the new set of milestones (no matter whether it is 3.0 M2, M3... or 2.5 M2, M3...). 
If someone know how to do that please advice me, it would help with pushing the project plan proposal into Bugzilla.

Regards, 
Michael
