Thanks Brian for setting this up.
I guess the next question is, where do we go from here?
*
Are there any interested parties that would want to make
additional demos of their stuff?
*
What should be the goals of unification: common UI across the
board? An EMF model of connection properties? Common persistence? We'll
need to think about backward compatibilitity layers when it comes to
products adopting any new framework.
*
McQ raised the concern that a single UI for all kinds of
connections is not necessarily desirable. Re-using common widgets may be
desireable, though.
I'd propose the next step to be starting a Wiki page with Requirements
for a new E4 connection framework - requirements, constraints and
possible use-cases perhaps.
Cheers,

Subject: [eclipse-incubator-e4-dev] Meeting notes from
today'sE4/Connectivity Frameworks discussion
Hi all,
Just wanted to let you know I've posted some (very rough) notes
on the Wiki about today's discussion about E4 and Connectivity
Frameworks here on the wiki:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/September_11%2C_2008.
I want to thank everybody who attended. I thought it was a great
exchange of ideas and highlighted a number of common areas to focus on.
A special thanks to Martin O & Scott Lewis for presenting their
bits on RSE & ECF.
Please feel free to edit the notes if I forgot something or was
just incorrect about something.
I hope this is just the first of these discussions!
