Clean-up of the code basis and process
Convert platform tests to Junit 4
Improve whitespace situations (whenever possible)
Formatter and save actions
Delete unused code, classes and packages
Upgrade our plug-ins to Java 7,
fix warning messages and adding generics
Hopefully this helps with future development and contributions
What are the future plans?
This is what commercial companies would show now
But, hey, we are an Open Source project...
Migrate Eclipse IDE parts to the e4
programing model
we (definitely) want to intregrate Mickaels
new Project Import wizard
(Finally) migrate JFace to generics
(maybe) introduce a new data binding framework
Make more use of parallelization in the IDE
After Mars Platform UI plans
to move to Java 8
Lets see how much resistence
we get her)
