		<description>Milestone planning for SSE Component</description>
		<milestone name="1.0M8">
			<title>1.0M8 Plan - updated 9/12/2005</title>
			<description>
				<p>M8 focusses on performance and confirming our API designs, and to overall give smaller, easier to digest examples while providing a good exemplary implementation of each extension facility we support. To that end we will use the WSDL, XSD, and XML editors as the benchmarks and examples of good multi-page editors embedding an SSE source page, including:</p>
				<ul>
					<li>Ensuring contributions work correctly, for base-provided actions as well as the ruler, toolbar, and status line</li>
					<li>Ensuring validate-edit and resource synchronization work from every page</li>
					<li>Making sure input types other than FileEditorInput function properly</li>
				</ul>
			</description>
			<category name="Design for Platform Use">
				<detail>Provide API to embed source page editor in multipage editors and improve integration with the Eclipse platform</detail>
				<item priority="medium" status="in-progress">
					<description>Continue refactoring to improve separation of components</description>
				</item>
				<item priority="high" status="in-progress">
					<description>Remove ViewerSelectionManager in favor of workbench part-driven selection notification</description>
					<detail>SSE currently provides a ViewerSelectionManager which duplicates the functionality provided by the platform selection service and SelectionProvider API.
					This also includes deprecating and removing VSM-specific event types</detail>
