Re: [EasyEclipse-user] Joining to easyEclipse

Sorry we took time to answer -- we're really swamped right now.

Help is absolutely welcome !!!

There aren't many document yet, because not many people outside of =20
the team that started it have helped. But we can start it as needed.

Quick overview: the easyeclipse "assembly line" is written mostly =20
entirely with Jakarta Ant, so it's a lot of 'ant' files, plus some =20
custom tasks in Java. The metadata about how to build, package, etc. =20
each plugin, is stored in XML documents (the "repository"). The NSIS =20
installer is relatively simple, but there are always enhancement to do.

I would propose that you select  a few of the bugs and/or enhancement =20=

requests, that you would be interested in fixing/implementing (you =20
can actually add your own... your two previous emails were very valid =20=

enhancements requests). There are many of them:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=3D131065&atid=3D719798
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=3D131065&atid=3D719795
Then you can get the code, just to have an idea. In CVS it's the =20
Eclipse project:  :pserver:ano...@ea...:/=20=

cvsroot/easyeclipse, under easyeclipse/org.nexb.easyeclipse.releng . =20
You may also need the other projects in the same folder.

I can help you select which bugs/enhancements would be a good start =20
(not too tough, but showing results !), we can discuss about it, and =20
then I can help you get you started,
