[mdt.dev] MDT Project Provisioned

[Kenneth Hussey <khussey@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Team,

Initial provisioning of the MDT project
is now (finally) complete! The website is publicly available at http://www.eclipse.org/modeling/mdt
(or http://www.eclipse.org/mdt).

A newsgroup has been created for each
(sub)component - eclipse.modeling.mdt.eodm, eclipse.modeling.mdt.uml2.ocl,
eclipse.modeling.mdt.uml2.uml, eclipse.modeling.mdt.uml2.tools, and eclipse.modeling.mdt.xsd.
As component owners, it will be your responsibility to moderate these specific
newsgroups. The eclipse.tools.uml2 legacy newsgroup has been locked down
(redirecting users to the new group) and the new eclipse.modeling.mdt.xsd
newsgroup has been made read-only (redirecting users to the old group,
at least for now). Christian and Gordon, in case you haven't already, please
make an announcement on the EMFT newsgroup to redirect your clients to
the new groups.

Bugzilla inbox accounts have also been
set up for each (sub)component - mdt-releng-inbox@xxxxxxxxxxx, mdt-website-inbox@xxxxxxxxxxx,
mdt-eodm-inbox@xxxxxxxxxxx, mdt-uml2-ocl-inbox@xxxxxxxxxxx, mdt-uml2-uml-inbox@xxxxxxxxxxx,
mdt-uml2-tools-inbox@xxxxxxxxxxx, and mdt-xsd-inbox@xxxxxxxxxxx. Please
edit your Bugzilla preferences so that you are watching the appropriate
account(s).

Note that Nick has been kind enough
to set up Wikis for each (sub)component - please start evolving these to
provide appropriate documentation, FAQs, etc. to your user communities.
As always, if you have any questions, let us know!

Cheers,

Kenn Hussey
