RE: [platform-update-dev] working...

["Greg Adams/OTT/OTI" <Greg_Adams@xxxxxxx>]

Let me add some additional information to Vlad's comments that may also help you out.

*        The eclipse update/install facility was one of the few pieces marked as preliminary in the 1.0 release. By in large most components have a published API and our intent is to be good compatibility citizens.

For more information take a look at the currently posted 2.0 plan for the eclipse project. You can find it: http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/eclipse_project_plan_2_0.html          and in particular look at the section "See compatibility with previous release"

*        With respect to update, it was originally preliminary and we have been working in conjunctions with clients to revise  it. As vlad indicates we are being very transparent & encouraging community comments on the 2.0 spec. You can find it at the link provided by Vlad below.

*        If you are interested in any of the planned work, design proposals etc for a given component you can visit a component's home page. To get to the component home pages:
        - pick projects -in left nav bar
        - pick the eclipse project 
        - pick one of platform, jdt or pde
        - then pick the component
        (yes this is a bit many clicks and we will likely improve navigation as soon as we catch our breath<g>)

*        We are definitely interested in people wanting to contribute & work on a component. The best way to ensure the component evolves in a way consistent with your needs is to participate in the design discusssions, and ideally to get involved in code contributions.

Eclipse is an open source project, so anyone can become a contributor. 
Please refer to www.eclipse.org for more information (project 
organization, "rules", maling lists, etc, etc, etc)

If you are specifically interested in the update support, there is a 
working spec posted on eclipse.org you can read/ comment on/ etc. See 
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/platform-update-home/main.html 
for the update component page and follow the Development Resources link 
for the spec (under Documents).

If you are looking for general Eclipse mailing list, this is the wrong 
place (try eclipse-dev ot platform-dev).
