Re: [modeling-pmc] Jean Bezivin has stepped down from his Eclipse responsibilities

Hi

I have prepared draft Move Review slides which Wayne has glanced at and observed that there was no project plan. I prepared a project plan, but got depressed when neither GMT nor M2M project pages would render it.

If someone schedules the move review,. that will give me the final push to get the plan done.

    Regards

Hello all,

Thanks a lot for your quick answers.
To sum up, the plans concerning the remaining GMT sub-projects are the followings:
  • AMW - To be terminated
    • Relevant content has to be migrated into M2M-ATL before, to be managed by Marcos Didonet Del Fabro;
  • Epsilon - Move already in progress to EMFT
    • Actual provisioning into EMFT to come soon;
  • GEMS - To be terminated;
  • MOFScript - To be terminated;
  • OMCW - To be terminated;
  • UMLX - To be terminated
    • Relevant content has to be migrated/merged into M2M/QVTd before, to be managed by Ed Willink;
  • VIATRA2 - To be moved
    • Targeted project has to be contacted, to be managed by Daniel Varro.
Does everybody agree about this described situation?

Best regards,

Hugo

We are still maintaining VIATRA2 quite actively.
I will try to act in the way Epsilon as.

We don't have a maintainer of GEMS at this point. I suggest termination and archival of the project.

Thanks,

Jules

Hi,

Regarding AMW, I did a request a couple of months ago to migrate to the M2M project.
However, after a discussion with Hugo and part of the ATL team, I think it is more appropriate to move only its content into the M2M-ATL project. Are you ok with that?

After that, the AMW project can be arquived.


Regards,


Marcos.

Hi Wayne & Ed,

I remember that Jean contacted the various GMT sub-project leaders more than one year ago to start discussing about the migration or termination of their different projects.
At that time, the idea was to archive the GMT project in itself once a satisfying situation found for each one of its sub-projects.
This first round of discussions has already resulted in several moves: MoDisco is now in MDT (including the content from the AM3 project), Epsilon in EMFT, TCS in TMF.
I've taken a quick look to the GMT homepage and updated the available links accordingly.

Thus, the remaining sub-projects are:
  • AMW - There is a pre-agreement to move its content to the M2M-ATL project, nevertheless the actual process has to be finally set up and launched if still relevant (cf. Marcos Didonet Del Fabro);
  • Epsilon - Already OK (can be removed from GMT once provisioned in EMFT);
  • GEMS - cf. Jules White for the project status?
  • MOFScript - cf. Goran K. Olsen for the project status?
  • OMCW - There is only courseware content in this project, I will take the lead to move it somewhere else and terminate this project;
  • UMLX - cf. ongoing discussions with Ed Willink;
  • VIATRA2 - cf. Daniel Varro for the project status?
If needed, I can provide my help in preparing the docuware for the GMT termination review.

Best regards,

Hugo

Hi Ed.

Every once in a while, the Technology project does a project purge. We
start by putting together a list of candidates and then try to determine
how active the projects are. We basically take on the termination
process ourselves because the project members tend to be under-motivated
to effect the reviews themselves. Where possible, we get a +1 from the
project lead before we finalize the list.

Here's our list of terminations that we're targeting for December 2011:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Technology/Subproject_Termination_Review_2011

Termination reviews don't require a huge amount of documentation; they
just need to provide some discussion of why the project is terminating
(in Technology, it tends to be lack of involvement), along with a list
of the things that need to happen to complete the termination/archival
process. We lump the lot of them into a single review document (i.e the
wiki page)

We did something similar with DSDP:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/DSDP/Restructuring_Review

Let me know if you want any help getting started in assembling something
similar for Modeling (there may be other candidate projects outside of GMT).

HTH,


Wayne
