[mylyn-dev] Towards the improvement of task context?

[Zéphyrin Soh <zephyrin.soh@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Mylyn developers,

With the main goal of improving how Mylyn build the task context (using 
the degree of interest), we study the Mylyn interaction traces and 
observe that they contain more than 80% of edit events that are created 
by text selections in the editor [1]. So they are not actually the 
changes performed on source code.
We think that because Mylyn uses the kind of event (e.g., edit event) as 
an indication of the relevance, we wondering if we could process to the 
filtering of these edit events prior to forming the context or defining 
other levels of relevance (and their interest weight) under edit events.
For more information about our observations, please take a look at [2].

What do you think or do you have any advice/comments on that?
