ModelingAmalgam
The Modeling Amalgamation Project (just amalgam for short) will provide improved packaging, integration, and usability of Modeling project components.
Contents
Components
Activity Explorer
Contextual Explorer
Discovery (inactive)
It ease discovery of modeling components through a discovery ui easing installation of those. The discovery is here to help you attract more users and get more feedback, as such it's as open as possible, If you want to be part of it, just ask through a bugzilla.
The only requirement are
- being an Eclipse project and following the Eclipse Development Process
- testing your contribution
You're not required to be part of the release train though it makes collaboration easier with other projects. Projects can also provide early adopters versions, the user will be informed of this status when selecting the component.
Your component will be removed from the discovery UI if :
- its installation is failing
- major integration issues are not adressed
