Re: [platform-ui-dev] Shipping activities?
|
What Andre said <grin>. Right now we are still in the process of
determining which activities will ship with the Eclipse SDK (likely PDE
and maybe a couple of others) but the decision will be made (and included
in the SDK) well before we ship.
Downstream customers are already using this support for thier products as
well.

Yes, and no.
You are right in that we are not playing the game we expect others to.
However, when we did Activities we had envisioned to provide support
for reducing the UI of the layers sitting on top of Eclipse. In
addition one important aspect of activities was that not the
component owner would had to define the activities, but a downstream
product manager could do after the fact.
But I agree that it would make a lot of sense to define some
activities in Ecipse too (at least for testing or pedagogical
purposes).
