[Announce] Eclipse Lepido



Hello Sylvain,

nice to hear you are planing this project but did you know that in
forrest.apache.org we host already a similar tool?


Have a look at http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/forrest/trunk/tools/eclipse/

You wrote that your project is starting in the proposal phase, you may
consider using the forrest/eclipse plugin and helping to enhance it in
forrest.apache.org. That would allow you a quick start with community
and code. ;-)



Wow, didn't knew about this Forrest plugin. AFAICS it seems to have some common roots with Burrokeet (http://www.burrokeet.org/).


We, speaking for the forrest project, will happily welcome you (and
everybody else) and help you creating the project here on apache. Maybe
as subproject of forrest/cocoon. Of course you can go ahead with your
original plan and use the above mentioned code (it's open source ;-) )
as starting point if you want.



IMO, Apache is not the right place for an IDE as Apache focuses on server and infrastructure software. Furthermore, the Lepido's goals go very far in the IDE features, and therefore require different skills than those needed to develop the server-side framework. That's what led us to propose this project to the Eclipse folks.


Sylvain
