[modeling-pmc] Restructuring EMF-IncQuery and VIATRA projects
|
Dear PMC,
in order to avoid a potential trademark issue between the EMF-IncQuery project and IncQuery Labs Ltd. (a key supporter of both EMF-IncQuery and VIATRA), we would like to propose to change the name of the EMF-IncQuery project, after consultation with the Eclipse Foundation.
Considering the close relation of the EMF-IncQuery and VIATRA projects (both in terms of common committers and technological dependencies), we are proposing to combine the renaming with a restructuring that involves merging EMF-IncQuery into VIATRA and introducing a new component structure.
To this end, we asked all committers two questions on the development mailing lists:
* Do you agree with renaming "EMF-IncQuery" to "VIATRA Incremental Queries"?
* Do you agree with the new proposed project structure, i.e. moving the code from EMF-IncQuery to VIATRA?
These votes finished with the following results:
EMF-IncQuery [1]
* Renaming 8 yes / 2 non-voting / 0 no
* Restructuring 9 yes / 1 non-voting / 0 no
VIATRA [2]
* Renaming: 10 yes / 0 non-voting / 0 no
* Restructuring: 10 yes / 0 non-voting / 0 no
Based on these results, we are preparing a formal restructuring review. Additionally, considering VIATRA is still in incubation while EMF-IncQuery already graduated, we would combine this with a graduation review of VIATRA.
However, before we start, we would like to ask the PMC to give a preliminary approval of this plan.
Thank you,
Ábel Hegedüs, István Ráth (EMF-IncQuery project leads)
