<h1>Proposal for the Eclipse Data Tools Platform Incubator Project</h1> | |
<h2>Introduction</h2> | |
<p>The Eclipse Data Tools Platform Incubator is a proposed open source project | |
under the Eclipse Data Tools Platform project.</p> | |
<p>This proposal is in the Project Proposal Phase (as defined in the Eclipse | |
Development Process document) and is written to declare its intent and scope. | |
This proposal is written to solicit additional participation and input from the | |
Eclipse community. You are invited to comment on and/or join the project. Please | |
send all feedback to the <a | |
href="http://www.eclipse.org/newsportal/thread.php?group=eclipse.dtp">http://www.eclipse.org/newsportal/thread.php?group=eclipse.dtp</a> | |
newsgroup.</p> | |
<h2>Project Overview</h2> | |
<p>The Eclipse Data Tools Platform Incubator project will host components that | |
are within the scope of the Eclipse Data Tools Platform project, but not yet | |
ready for distribution in the main code line. Through targeted mentoring by the | |
Eclipse Data Tools Platform team, committers working on incubating components | |
can bring their code and operating processes to maturity.</p> | |
<h2>Scope</h2> | |
<p>The Eclipse Data Tools Platform Incubator will focus on new development in | |
areas that are relevant to the other Eclipse Data Tools Platform projects, | |
which because of their nature would not be appropriate for direct inclusion in | |
the effected sub-project. This could be because the work is still experimental, | |
will have a longer timeline than can be contained within a single release, has | |
dependencies on external IP that has not yet cleared the Eclipse Foundation IP | |
process, or is simply potentially too destabilizing in nature.</p> | |
<h2>Out of Scope</h2> | |
<p>Work in the Eclipse Data Tools Platform Incubator will be constrained to only those | |
efforts that we expect to graduate (i.e. the code will eventually become part | |
of one of the other Eclipse Data Tools Platform sub-projects). It is not a | |
playground for arbitrary development efforts. In addition, we should ensure | |
that investment in the incubator never leaves the community with the perception | |
that it is coming at the cost of important work on the other Eclipse Data Tools | |
Platform sub-projects.</p> | |
<h2>Organization</h2> | |
<p>The Eclipse Data Tools Platform Incubator (<i>org.eclipse.datatools.incubator</i>) | |
will be a new sub-project of the Eclipse Data Tools Platform project, and will | |
contain a number of incubating components and their associated committer teams.</p> | |
