Intent is a proposed new open source project under the [[Mylyn]] top-level project. The project is currently in the [http://www.eclipse.org/projects/dev_process/development_process_2010.php#6_2_2_Proposal Proposal] phase.
+
The [http://eclipse.org/proposals/mylyn.docs.intent/ proposal] has been published and is waiting for comments.
+
  
The main purpose of Intent is to allow developers to easily write a documentation up-to-date with any development artifact (models, code, environment…). The documentation, integrated with other Eclipse tools, then becomes truly useful and is no longer a burden that developer have to carry to please their customers or their project manager.

Based on Donald Knuth’s Literate Programming concepts and allowing collaborative work around design tasks, Intent will be presented at [https://www.eclipsecon.org/submissions/2011/view_talk.php?id=2199 Eclipse Con 2011].

Welcome to the Intent project's community wiki.

From the project page:

Intent is a Text & Model-Synchronized Document Engineering Platform. The key question of Intent seeks to address is how different kind of artifacts can be systematically synchronized during the development of complex systems.

The main motivation behind the synchronization problem is to develop a consistent and complete system in essence by providing tools for users to specify which artifacts they want to map.

The objective of the Intent project is to bring a quantum leap in the productivity of technical authors (such as software or systems engineers, project managers, business developers, etc.) who are engaged in authoring documents of a technical nature. To achieve this, Intent provides tools to create mapping between documents<->models<->code<->... and views to control and correct de-synchronization defects.

Some videos shows Intent in action at [1].

Source code, releases, contributors, forum, ... everthing to contact Intent community is available from the project page.
