[news.eclipse.tools.emf] Re: Apply EMF Compare Diffs in command stack

[laurent Goubet <laurent.goubet@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Wayne,

The main problem here is that we currently have multiple ResourceSet 
when comparing (one for the left model, one for the right, ... and one 
for the ancestor if it exists). We are trying to find a way to use an 
editing domain, but AFAIK it only provides a single editing domain and 
we cannot cope with this.

Any idea is welcome.
