Re: [nattable-dev] NatTable -> Nebula Status
Hi Edwin,

I was trying to setup eGit in my eclipse to clone the repo. But something doesn't work. Could you please send me the credentials (Host, Repository path, protocol, ...) so I can try it again. Maybe there is something wrong as I get exceptions with the ls command.

Thanks,
Dirk

Hi all,

I wanted to get a quick pulse on status on the NatTable migration to Nebula. Please reply with status on your action items. My update is below:

On my to do list has been putting out the NatTable 2.3.2 release on SourceForge (done) and getting the initial contribution into the Eclipse Git repo. We just got clearance from Eclipse Legal to check in today, so I just made the initial commits to our Git repo. The IPzilla for the NatTable initial contribution is here: https://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6475. If you look through the comments you'll see I made several modifications to our source in order to pass IP review. Aside from the ones we discussed (changing package names, versions, license headers), I also removed all references to 3rd party code. In most cases this was inconsequential, but there were 2 cases that affect functionality slightly:

1. One of the cases was a copy of the GlazedLists ThresholdMatcherEditor which we had a modified copy of in order to work around an issue (http://java.net/projects/glazedlists/lists/users/archive/2009-10/message/1). I removed the modified copy and reverted back to the GlazedLists version of this class, which essentially causes a regression on this issue, so we'll have to look into how to address this in another way.
2. Another issue was the images that we have in NatTable. I wasn't 100% sure of the provenance of all of the images so I recreated all of the images based on EPL-licensed images from Eclipse (http://eclipse-icons.i24.cc/). If you take a look through the images package you'll see the different icons. I think the new icon set is a bit more coherent than the old set, which is a plus, but let me know your thoughts.

You can clone the repo via Git now. I also added a guestbook.txt file for us to practice checking in changes to. Clone the repo, make sure you can build NatTable, and then add a line to the guestbook.txt, commit it and push it back to the remote repo at Eclipse. You can check here: http://git.eclipse.org/c/nattable/org.eclipse.nebula.widgets.nattable.git/tree/guestbook.txt to see if your changes made it back into the Eclipse repo.

The only other item I had on my list was scheduling the next meeting, which I still have to do.

Here were the other assignments, please let us know how you're getting along:

* Bugzilla - Stefan
  - migration from Jira
  - define usage policy

* Common Build Infrastructure - James
  - Hudson, Tycho
  - p2 repo

* NatTable web site (http://www.eclipse.org/nattable) - Dirk, Stephan
  (I've been peeking at the site from time to time, and it looks great - you guys are doing an awesome job!)

* Integration with Nebula examples - Justin

ALSO: Please don't forget to introduce yourselves on the nebula-dev mailing list (nebula-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx). So far only Dirk has done so.

Thanks,
Edwin
