All,
I've been tempted for quite some time to make a similar announcement,
only for EMF. I don't believe I will have the resource to get EMF's
build working on the new infrastructure, and most certainly I am highly
unlikely to do so without some evidence that the cost and effort
involved will *not *be born only by me personally (and by the
helpful-but-overburdened Foundation Staff):
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=558735#c1
I *strongly *recommend to the IDE Working Group that action be taken
without further delay.
Christian,
One thing that I would ask, and strongly suggest for Xtext, is simply to
leave your current contribution(s) to SimRel as is for contribution to
2021-06 such that the IDE Working Group has time to take action. There
is no absolute requirement that you must provide a new release, right?
Certainly one would hope that it's reasonable to assume that the
Platform, and your other dependencies, will remain fully compatible with
your most recently release, right?
Physically removing the most recent Xtext release from the 2021-06 train
is a bit of a bombshell that affects a great many other projects. Once
we drop this bomb, we may as well throw in the towel...
Regards,
Ed

Hi all,
i want to inform you that we at itemis will no longer drive the
participation of Xtext in the Eclipse simultaneous release beginning
with the upcoming 2021-06 release

<https://blogs.itemis.com/en/xtext-is-leaving-the-eclipse-simultaneous-release>.
As there are currently no other parties with the capacity to take over
the work this will result in Xtext leaving the Simrel. This will also
affect other projects in the Simrel that consume Xtext like OCL,
Xcore, Parsley and parts of GEF as well as the DSL Package in EPP.
(and maybe others)
