Abstract

This symposium presents the b3 project proposal, a project intended to develop a new generation of Eclipse technology to simplify software build and assembly. The work of the project will be a complement and potential successor to the PDE Build component. The project proposes three key objectives: - Making build processes simpler, repeatable, reproducible and adaptable - Bridging discontinuities between building and provisioning software - Aligning potentially overlapping Eclipse build technologies. Join this symposium to discuss key requirements and become part of the project if you are interested in this domain. We will present some initial ideas, concerns and approaches to start off the discussion.
