Hi Ed,

I guess that on your turn you misinterpreted my email that was a real question 
(may be naiv) and for sure not a bad critic.

Best.

Sebastien

I think you are misinterpreting  "require UML2's extended GenModel to take 
action" as synonymous with "the changes are bad."

Any change (good or bad) to the GenModel.ecore affects (at least potentially) 
UML's extended GenModel implementation.

  
http://git.eclipse.org/c/emf/org.eclipse.emf.git/log/plugins/org.eclipse.emf.codegen.ecore/model/GenModel.ecore

Also any change to templates (good or bad) affects (at least potentially) UML's 
specialized templates:

  
http://git.eclipse.org/c/emf/org.eclipse.emf.git/log/plugins/org.eclipse.emf.codegen.ecore/templates/model/Class.javajet

We can all be thankful (and I certainly am!)  that Itemis consistently sponsors 
my contributions and that Dennis Hübner of TypeFox does the Releng work on my 
behalf.

Note that lack of signing support for Buckminster builds will become a 
significant problem for someone, or perhaps everyone, when the foundation 
disables that service.

Regards,
Ed

Hi Ed,

Can you tell me what are the changes that have been made and will be bad for 
photon w.r.t. EMF generator part?

Thanks.
Best.

Kenn,

That's pretty bad for Papyrus, parts of OCL, and parts of EMF Compare.  :-(  
And I'm not sure which other release-train parts are downstream of those 
parts...

Downstream consumers should note that parts of UML2 (i.e., the generator parts) 
don't work with the latest EMF (i.e., the generator parts of it) because any 
changes I make to the GenModel  (and I made many changes recently) require 
UML2's extended GenModel to take action.  So we can't just feed the Oxygen 
version of UML2 into the Photon train (at least not all of UML2's parts).

Regards,
Ed

PMC,

I just wanted to give you a heads up that there are currently no plans for UML2 
to participate in the upcoming Photon simultaneous release, due to lack of 
funding. Unfortunately, this means that dependencies will break when the 
aggregation file is disabled by the EMO immediately following M4.

If anyone is interested (or knows someone who might be interested) in helping 
ensure that UML2 is kept up to date and that it can participate in the Photon 
release, please reach out to me directly.

Thanks,

Kenn
