[m2m-iwg] All-in-one Eclipse package for M2M (Benjamin Cab?)

["Werner Keil" <werner.keil@xxxxxxx>]

Benjamin/all,

Sounds like an interesting idea. 
Given, Paho is mostly based on Java, and Wikipedia's explanation of M2M literally states "M2M uses a device (such as a sensor or meter) to capture an event (such as temperature, inventory level, etc.), ..." reliable ways to handle captured events in Java probably can't hurt, thus Other eclipse plug-ins to assist Paho would ideally contain UOMo, too.

At the moment, UOMo is in Incubation, like Paho, the underlying Unit-API is currently being contributed to Orbit after all the license and IP clearance has happened. While the OHF umbrella was archived early this year, all sub-projects, most importantly the UCUM parts have been a 1.0 version already, so the re-introduction under the UOMo umbrella (just like STEM has already left the Incubator some time ago) was the only reason it moved back to Incubation. A 1.0 of UOMo before Kepler projects are frozen therefore seems quite possible. 

There are 2 ways, UOMo can help MQTT clients, either on a low, Message level through UCUM support (the current client and examples look like that's the most helpful one at this stage) or where marshalling messages to actual Java objects (like JAX-B or JSON-B) or let's say EMF Models was required, UOMo Units helps to ensure unit consistency where unit-relevant events and messages are dealt with.
