[platform-debug-dev] Memory View - Internal API for 3.0

[Darin Wright <Darin_Wright@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The debug platform recently received a generous contribution, known as the 
"Memory View". The view comes with a reasonable amount of new API and 
extensions for debug models to implement, in order to leverage the new 
view. We want to include the Memory View in Eclipse 3.0. However (there 
had to be a however), due to our current schedule, we do not have the time 
to properly review and evolve (as required) the new API to ensure it 
settles into a state that we are happy with for the long term.

Thus, in order to include the Memory view with Eclipse 3.0, and allow 
other debug implementations to leverage it, we want to include the view as 
"internal API". This means we will include the new interfaces and classes 
in internal packges, and annotate the associated extension points as 
"internal". Those that use the view will need to understand that they will 
be faced with a migration effort to corresponding public API in a later 
release. This will allow us to evolve a public API as a community, and 
should result in a higher quality result than we could produce ourselves 
in the short term.
