Hi All,

In our coming light-weight TapestryTools, If we want to supply
autocomplete features, we must implement it in some special tml editor
(In current version TapestryTools,we use WTP's jsp editor). Now, we
want to remove Eclipse WTP dependencies, should find some other exist
editors. After talking with my GSoC mentor Igor Drobiazko, we thought
the most of tapestry users are using xml editor for tml files, and
decided to  hook Tapestry components' autocomplete features into XML
Editor which is included in Eclipse JavaEE.

As Eclipse classic does not include XML editor, it will require
Eclipse for JEE developers as a minimum. If there is not XML editor in
users' eclipse  (or they are not using Eclipse Jave EE), people can
not install this feature, but they can still other plugin which do not
need XML editor. It means Eclipse classic users can have all the
TapestryTools' features besides autocomplete things.

Or we will supply two update sites, one for Eclipse JavaEE, the other
includes XML editor jars for Eclipse classic.

We will concentrate on simple and useful stuff first to confirm a
minimal feature set that works perfect, then consider option
functions. For example, if user have installed Eclipse Java EE, it
means they have installed WTP already. I want to reconstruct current
TapestryTools' code, supply Tapestry components' auto-complete feature
in WTP jsp editor as an option function in the future.

Once more, we are still in project proposal prepare and solution
survey stage, hoping for more voices from Tapestry users and
developers, if you have any advises, please let me know. Thank you.
