Per: Dependency management, dependencies from Papyrus
- Remi: Currently under investigation
- Propose a RCP with the least included features to have a working diagram
- Rather than removing UI contributions with activities, let's not include them!
- Propose a RCP with the least included features to have a working diagram
- For example: dependency from Papyrus Facet core plugin to PDE to build workspaced java based queries. That should be extracted to an other plugin to avoid pde dependency in core. Should be only proposed to toolsmith or developers.
- Issue: API modifications for next release should be limited.
- No tool to maintain such dependency restrictions, so hard to maintain in time. Solution should be found to help developers maintain a good architecture.
