I’m the Platform UI group’s newest committer and my main interest at this point is the Common Navigator. I have been using it in the development of my RCP application now for about 9 months, but I’m by no means an expert. However, I’m sure I will become one soon. My intention as a committer is to build a community around working on the Common Navigator such that many people will be contributing patches or test cases (or even just bugs). I also hope to make a large dent in the bug/feature request backlog for 3.5 such that more people will find the Common Navigator useful.
I will be watching the eclipse.platform and eclipse.platform.rcp newsgroups and will try to respond to messages about the Common Navigator quickly. It would be helpful if you could tag such messages [CommonNavigator] so I can easily find them.
Welcome, I’m sure your work on the Common Navigator will be appreciated by many 🙂
Welcome Francis! Its great to have you as a committer. I’m sure you’ll make CN even better than it is!
