Hi Nicholas,

As a first step we should try and document the obvious problems in
bugzilla.
  bugs.eclipse.org/bugs
Bugs should be entered against RT/Equinox/p2 and put the word "[felix]" in
the subject line to easily identify relevant bugs.

It also wouldn't hurt to create a wiki page to document the progress, open
issues, etc. I would put it in the p2 category.
  http://wiki.eclipse.org/Category:Equinox_p2

Katya's note contains a couple of hints and gotchas that she discovered
when working on the problem initially.
   http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/p2-dev/msg04198.html

For loading the code into your workspace, refer to my previous email for
repository connection information.
   http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/p2-dev/msg04190.html

Initial coding can be done against the projects in the Equinox incubator
since the Framework Admin extensions for Felix are separate and only
contained there. Once there are more changes to be made in the standard
Equinox bundles (simple configurator, Eclipse touchpoint, etc) then we will
have to discuss whether to branch in the incubator (and deal with the
merging issues, etc) or to come up with a different approach.

We should try and keep discussions about specific problems in the bug
reports but if you have setup questions, etc this mailing list is probably
the best forum.

Let us know if you have any questions/problems. Thanks.

Thank you DJ, thank you Pascal for your answers.
I'm interested in full-blown core & operations API, and don't need UI
packages.

How can i participate?

  Nicholas are you interested in using all of p2, or just some of its sub
  components?

  As DJ said, this is something that we tried two years ago but we had to
  stop because of corporate priorities on other projects.

  I would be very happy to see this effort resurrected. I think most of the
  effort required to make this happens consists in either making some of p2
  dependencies on some Equinox packages or splitting up the Equinox
  packages used by p2 into separate bundles. Then there is the work on
  providing a fwk admin that knows how to work with Felix.

  Is anyone interested in participating?
