Re: [nebula-dev] CTableTree 
Hi Emil,
I'll try to use my contacts and find someone who can help to get the builds up and running after the 3.4 crazyness is over. I know EMF has a great build infrastructure with many different small projects so maybe Nick Boldt can help us to this up and running once more.
I've filed a bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=237588 and see if I can get Nick to help us set up a clean build process.

Personally my biggest "issue" is that Nightly builds aren't working (which I've voiced over and over and asked about without any answers). It seems if one "widget" has bad code, the entire build for Nebula fails (I'm not sure that's 100% correct, but from some old email thread that seems to be the case). I'm not sure who gets notified, but it doesn't seem to be the widget owner. From what I can see, the last nightly build ran on February 11th at 3:01 AM... I haven't heard anything of why they don't work, and neither do I know the inner workings of the Eclipse build process nor seem to have any access to it through the Eclipse portal.
I re-linked all my widget download links to my own server where I set up a nightly build process, just so that those that don't want to check everything out of CVS all the time to get the latest code, can download the latest jars/javadocs/etc, but I'm sure there's many that don't have the option of doing something similar. It'd be nice to know what's going on with the builds and to get them up and running, and even better, to have a build run on each widget seperately so if one repo has code that won't compile, it doesn't affect everyone else.

    Hi Jeremy,

    I'll comment on the other points later

    [...]

        #5 - why would they want to work under Nebula?  No offense meant
        here either, but there is a cost to working under this umbrella
        and the benefits don't seem especially well laid out... I'm
        really not sure what they are even.  Overall, I've had a better
        experience with code at Sourceforge and have reopened
        development of CDateTime there (where it began) - I plan on
        reconnecting with Peter and seeing what I can transfer over, but
        for my development SF is good and, most importantly, widgets are
        fun again.


    What makes working under nebula different from working on sourceforge?

    After you have done to initial stuff (signed committer agreement,
    ...) there's no limiting thing in nebula as far as I can see but on
    the other hand you can reach many developers because your control is
    part of eclipse (and advertised on the website).

    Would anybody of you ever heard of the cool widgets if they are not
    part of nebula? I always thought the purpose for the creation of the
    Nebula-Project was to provide a central platform for widget creators
    to have a place people can look for additional widgets.

    If there's something that holds off people from making the widget
    part of nebula I think there needs to get a bug filed and fixed
    immediately ;-)
