Re: [riena-dev] Riena CVS clean-up & refactoring

["Campo, Christian" <Christian.Campo@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Elias,

we had a group meeting where we (riena committers) discussed your proposal. We all voted PRO reorganising the CVS structure.

Can you please open a bug, where you layout the new structure and how projects should be moved into it, and then we can do a last review and assign it to a webmaster, if we are all ok with it. But reorganizing the CVS and making it easier to understand is a good thing. Thanks for proposing it.

regards
christian

I think it belongs into runtime and shouldnt be in a place where it is easily judged as second class citizien. People can then in their launch config disable it as they can choose not to use navigation, communication or security.

I think the bundle *.rcp" still belongs into runtime subdirectory because RCP is our major platform. As we start to adopt e4 we will then add another subdirectory /e4 where we put the Riena stuff that is e4 specific.
