Re: [nebula-dev] Zest and Nebula







Hi Ian,

I think the Zest components would be great for Nebula.

Regarding Draw2d/GEF, I think it makes sense for us to create a separate
module within Nebula to host GEF dependent widgets.

I generally like simpler APIs, with a model API as an add-on.  So I'm in
favor of a SWT-like API but I don't think thats a requirement.  The
CompositeTable just offers a JFace-like API.

+1 for the Zest components and
+1 for Ian as committer
