Re: [mdt-ocl.dev] Question regarding submitting EMF Event Manager

Hi Kenn
 
MDT Sphinx seems like a better, fourth, option. But again, little chance of it happening for Indigo, and I'm not sure that we want an MDT Sphinx dependency in Indigo.
 
Axel: Can you liaise with MDT Sphinx to identify a permanent Event Manager home post Indigo?
 
    Regards

Guys,

IMHO, the Event Manager rightfully belongs in MDT Sphinx. I was sure I had said that before, but maybe I hadn't. In any case, I would suggest discussing it with the Sphinx project leads, Stephan and Sébastien (copied), to see whether there is indeed a good fit on the longer term...

Cheers,

Kenn

Hi Adolfo

I completely agree that it would be much better to put the Event Manager in its right place.

Unfortunately it's size and utility puts it on the border of EMF Core.

If it goes in EMF Core it must be thoroughly reviewed before M6. No chance. I'm sure there are many aspects that 'must' be changed to please different reviewer's 'aesthetics'.

If a new EMF Event Manager incubation sub-project is created, this too must happen by perhaps M7. My experiences trying to raise an EMF Model Registry project discourage me from recommending this approach. We also would have a dependency on an Incubation project for OCL Examples.

This leaves OCL Examples as the least bad solution, assuming we don't abandon the Impact Analyzer altogether, which would be very disappointing since I see the impact analysis as having many potential customers, including ourselves.

Axel,

My reasons of committing the enhancement to the proper place are:
- It's an issue which should be sort out. The sooner the better...
- As soon as the event manager is committed in somewhere the enthusiasm of moving it to the proper place could decrease...

As said, I think that asking for a deadline for the review doesn't hurt anybody... Why are we discussing if Ed M could find time to review the contribution this week?

Anyway, Ed W gave his +1 to commit the stuff into OCL Examples, so I'm not stopping this anymore.... my +0.

Cheers,
Adolfo.

Why do you expect a move to be so difficult. After all it's more or less a package rename which would have to happen anyway when moving out of the examples area. I would hope it doesn't stay in examples/ forever either ;-)

Hi all,

Coming back from my holidays break...

To be constructive... Axel what about if you try to obtain some feedback 
in the bugzilla or somewhere about when (1 week, 1 month, post indigido, 
never ?) the contribution could be reviewead and/or committed ?. 
Depending on such an estimation we could take some decisions about it. 
We all want to make the different pieces to be placed at the proper 
place... From my experience, if we committ the event manager into OCL, 
it will probably stay there forever.... So my preference is waiting 
until the event manager is committed into EMF, where it should really do 
exist...

Best Regards,
Adolfo.

Manager

Hi Axel

As you agreed in an earlier response, you must remove the event manager
and (impact analyzer) from CVS because it contains unapproved material.
It seems some is not even intended for OCL at all. If it is still there
tomorrow, I will have to remove it myself.
I "cvs rm"ed the contents, but of course they are still in the history. My ssh account on dev.eclipse.org is restricted, so I can't wipe it from /cvsroot/... by any means. If you can, please go ahead.

When I indicated that you could commit to event/impact without
approval,
I intended that lack of oversight to apply to minor/moderate
maintenance, not initial/major commit where Bugzillas await residual
review. I was not aware that the event manager was intended for EMF. So
long as this is the case it should not be committed to OCL.
Ed Merks hasn't done anything in a few months now. I don't see a problem with first committing this to OCL's examples section. If Ed Merks later thinks it should go into EMF Core, fine, then I'm happy to support him in moving it there. Until that happens, we need this for the Impact Analyzer. I won't hold the Impact Analyzer back for this solvable problem.

It's very odd that Ed has made no comment at all. Reviewing the
comments, it is now very unclear that he needs to comment since you say
you're migrating to OCL. However he may wake up in his PMC role and ask
why the OCL commit has happened without IP approval...

So long as the EMF Bugzilla is open and a comment is expected from Ed,
there should be an attachment that Ed can sensibly review. Please
provide it; a patch with org.eclipse.emf... names.
Ed Merks made it clear at ESE that *he* will look into naming and other implementation details after I explicitly offered my assistance. That's as much as I can do.

I'm not clear why you request permission today to do what you did
yesterday in breach of committer guidelines. Please read the guidelines
Could we please stop this? I admitted my novice mistake and apologized. I'm now trying to get it fixed. It would be helpful if you assisted me in this rather than keeping reminding me of my mistakes. I asked whether top open a new bug for the MDT/OCL component in preparation of an IP review for a later commit to that component. You now suddenly suggest you don't want the event manager bundle in the examples section although you know the impact analyzer depends on it. This would block the whole thing until Ed Merks moves which he hasn't since ESE. This is unnecessary, in my opinion, because---as I mentioned above---the one event manager bundle can easily be migrated to EMF Core later. It's just a package rename, and only from an *examples* package.

Therefore, I just would like to know what the best way is to get IP approval for committing this to the MDT/OCL examples section. If you plan to veto this, let me know now, because then this would mean that the Impact Analyzer gets blocked by Ed Merks' inactivity on https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=329336 until who knows when.

Best,
-- Axel

carefully. The integrity of Eclipse repositories is VERY important.
Breaking the guidelines leaves both of us in trouble; advertising the
breach on Bugzilla is not very helpful either.
Please wait for other committers to comment before taking unilateral
actions and please ask for advice when in doubt.

      Regards

          Ed Willink

The event manager is a pre-requisite for the OCL Impact Analyzer. At

EMF Core. That's why I created
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=329336. Meanwhile, Ed
Merks may not have found the time to look into this. I think this
shouldn't hold up the progress of the Impact Analyzer. Therefore, I'd
like to commit the event manager to the OCL examples section.

Question: For IP review, should I use the existing
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=329336 bug or should I
create a new bug specific to OCL/MDT?
