I prefer something similar to option C. This is because we have examples of work areas that do not fit into any of the existing graduated categories. For example, the AspectJ stuff. I think it would be better to have one incubator folder with a different folder underneath for each workarea.
I am against option B. A flat structure has proven to be confusing and
hard to find what you are looking for. I could be enticed to use option A
if we allow new incubator work areas to have their own folder under
org.eclipse.equinox. For example
org.eclipse.equinox/aspectj/incubator ...
Where org.eclipse.equinox/aspectj would not have any thing except the
incubator folder because nothing has graduated from it yet. Once something
graduates it would move up into the parent "aspectj" folder. A
disadvantage to this approach is that it will pollute the
org.eclipse.equinox/ folder with work areas that may never graduate and
could be abandoned altogether.

Subject: Re: [equinox-dev] Move the equinox incubator to RT
While this is being done, could we start talking about the shape of things
in this incubator?
The current structure of the repo is:
org.eclipse.equinox/
framework/
bundles/
p2/
bundles/
[...]
What do we want:
A - one incubator folder under each work are in the repo?
org.eclipse.equinox/
framework/
bundles/
incubator/
p2/
bundles/
incubator/
[...]
B - one incubator and everything flat
org.eclipse.equinox/
incubator/
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.foo.bar
org.eclipse.log.zoo....
framework/
bundles/
p2/
bundles/
[...]
C - one incubator with structure reflecting the work areas
org.eclipse.equinox/
incubator/
p2/
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.foo.bar
compendium/
org.eclipse.log.zoo
framework/
bundles/
p2/
bundles/
[...]
Personally I would vote for A.
What do you think?

Subject: [equinox-dev] Move the equinox incubator to RT
We have put this off long enough. As a New Year's resolution we will
finally move the equinox incubator to its rightful place under RT->Equinox.
We do not want to just move everything from the old equinox incubator over
to the RT->Equinox because many projects in the old incubator are outdated
and stagnant. We have opened a bug (
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=258483) to determine what
bundles from the equinox incubator are still active and should be moved
over to the RT->Equinox repository.
At this time we are looking for folks on the Equinox team and the community
to tell us what project from the incubator are still active. If you are
using or maintaining a project in the equinox incubator then please chime
into the bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=258483 and let
us know what projects you would like to see migrated over. Once we have the
list of projects determined then we will finalize the new repository layout
for the equinox incubator. We want to have the list of projects finalized
by M5 (end of January).
