RE: [mdt-ocl.dev] Features organization

["Willink, Ed" <Ed.Willink@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Adolfo

Useful; but I can always suggest an improvement.

If you're cleaning this up, the presentation would be much easier if all
redundant
includes were removed so that

	org.eclipse.ocl.all.sdk

included rather than repeated

	org.eclipse.ocl.core.sdk

and if

	org.eclipse.ocl.master

included just

    org.eclipse.ocl.all.sdk (feature)
    org.eclipse.ocl.examples (feature) 

[I nearly did this at M7 when I corrected all the descriptions, but
refrained from
yet another gratuitous ripple.]

This would then mean that each plugin was directly included by exactly one
feature allowing
your coordinated feature list to merge the basic features as e.g.

  Feature org.eclipse.ocl.all

    * org.eclipse.ocl (feature)
    	- lpg.runtime.java (plugin)
      - org.eclipse.ocl (plugin)
      - org.eclipse.ocl.ecore (plugin) 
    * org.eclipse.ocl.uml (feature)
      - org.eclipse.ocl.uml (plugin) 

---

It's important to use "All-in-One" prominently in association with the
master.
The Bold text in the Overview should look very similiar to the Download Page
entries.

---

That done you can eliminate the clumsy coordinated wording, by starting the
Overview.

OCL provides four main coordinating features to allow users to select useful
subsets of the overall functionality.
The coordinating features include plugins via eight basic features, which
may be used by users who require a finer-grained
functionality selection.

	Regards

		Ed
