[rmf-dev] Agile Grid Binaries copied into RMF Git repository

Dear RMF-Dev Members,

== For your information ==
The RMF project uses Agile Grid framework that is hosted at Source Forge. The Eclipse IP-Team has approved to use and redistribute this third-party library.

in the past we configured the Agile Grid source forge p2 repository in the target definition of the RMF build system which downloaded the binary and redistributed it as part of the RMF p2 repository. 
This approach had two disadvantages:
* The Agile Grid bundles at Source Forge were not signed. Thus, during installation of RMF via a p2 update site the user had to confirm the installation of unsigned Agile Grid bundles.
* Hosting the binaries of a third party library that correspond to a specific Eclipse CQ at an external site is a "no no" from the legal point of view.

In order to overcome these two disadvantages, the Agile Grid binaries are now available in the RMF Git Repository and the references to the Source Forge p2 repository are removed from our target definitions. Additionally, the RMF build system makes sure that the Agile Grid binaries are packaged with the correct legal documentation. Additionally, it signs the agile grid plugin.

== For those that are working on the RMF code ==
Please make sure that the new plugin org.agilemore.agilegrid is imported into your Eclipse development workspace.


Kind regards


Mark
