New project proposal on Eclipse.org

[Gorkem Ercan <go...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

Some of you have seen the cordova development tools that are part of the
JBoss tools in the past.
If you have not, here is a quick overview [1]. Today, we (Red Hat) have put
out a proposal[2]
to move most of the functionality to Eclipse foundation and continue its
development under
an Eclipse project named Thym.

Some of you have expressed interest in the project and such a project in
the past and
Eclipse proposals do have section to list interested parties. This section
only implies that
this is a project that is interesting for you [3] and nothing more but it
will help the proposal.
If you are interested and would not mind getting listed on the proposal,
please let me know.

If you have any questions regarding the project or the proposal the stage
is yours.

great, well make sure you keep us honest if (when) changes happen to those
shared bits =)

I guess it is close to a downstream.

>From runtimes perspective it is plain Cordova. IDE actually gets the
Cordova runtime directly from Apache repos just like CLI does. You can
Bring Your Own Cordova too but if a distribution is too different from an
Apache distribution a plugin that tells where required files should come
from is needed.

For the tools, it depends on the same artifacts as plugman and CLI. Like
the plugin.xml, config.xml, registry, directory structures etc. however
does not use the CLI/plugman implementation but rather have its own
implementation.

very cool! would you consider this downstream of Cordova or a flat out
fork? (neither is bad, I know sometimes the word 'fork' sounds nasty but I
view it as a healthy sign personally)
