Spindle 4T4 to be bundled with Eclipse WTP

The next generation of Spindle (the Eclipse plugin for Tapestry development) is going to be bundled with the Eclipse “Web Tools Plugin” (WTP). What does that mean? I’m not sure. The Spindle guy was a little vague on that. I’d have to guess that either he’ll be putting the two together in his own Eclipse distribution, or the WTP folks are sucking his plugin into their distribution. That later would be the coolest.

    I think this is really good news for Tapestry! It’ll go mainstream by default like faces will.

    Umm, whoa. Where did you get that idea? I said that the next gen Spindle will use WTP as the basis for it’s editors. That’s it. Nothing else.

  3. Paul Kimbrel Says:

    Well, that stinks. Getting this into the WTP tools would be quite a boon for Tapestry.

  4. Geoff Says:

    Well, getting a subproject over there pretty much requires corporate sponsorship. In other words they want committers who are full time. If there’s some company out there that wants to pay me to build Spindle - I’m game.

    Cheers,

    Geoff
