[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Commit rights to Fabio on XEclipse

Hi all, I'd like to propose that Fabio becomes a committer on XEclipse. Fabio has created a first patch for XEclipse (connection persistence feature): http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XECLIPSE-28 and he has gained an expertise in Eclipse by creating the Eclipse PSEW prototype in the frame of the Nepomuk project [1]. He has also developed an XWiki library for indexing XWiki resources in RDF at [2], that we'll announce and discuss on the list in a separate message. PSEW is a generic metadata workbench for Eclipse. It integrates optionaly XEclipse, which makes it then possible to annotate XWiki documents from Eclipse using one or several ontologies. This lets you for example add private tags and personal comments to remote XWiki documents, or draw links between XWiki pages and some local files. The idea would be then to also let you publish some of these annotations to the public server if you feel like it, or to share them with others over a P2P protocol. In this context we'd like to help adding several features to XEclipse like storing various XWiki addresses in the user's preferences, displaying several XWiki trees, adding custom editors, classifying the resources by their types (all classes in a common folder, all Groovy scripts in another one etc.). Tharindu, Asiri, everyone, what do you think? Of course we would discuss with you the features we have in mind before committing them, and we'll use extension points in XEclipse whenever appropriate for not turning XEclipse into a bloated thing!
