I definitely believe all RCP developers should be examining e4 and checking it against their use cases. I think a lot of developers have been a little intimidated by the wide variety of things going on, but hopefully more people will start looking at e4 as the pieces start coming together. --- Patrick Hi Kevin,

Thanks for the feedback, and for your invitation to contribute. I definitely believe all RCP developers should be examining e4 and checking it against their use cases.

I think a lot of developers have been a little intimidated by the wide variety of things going on, but hopefully more people will start looking at e4 as the pieces start coming together.

Leave it to an educator to boil things down so succinctly. :) We believe it's extremely important that we increase the options for RCP developers. And hopefully bring forth some simplicity although as you say there's always trade offs, and simplicity for one may not be simplicity for another. We of course highly value any input RCP experts such as yourself can provide in helping to drive the technology to ensure it's real and vital, either through application to representative examples, prototyping of real world applications, or refinement of common requirements.

It's the first thing I've read that focuses in on the core principles behind e4 instead of the "Eclipse in the cloud" or "Hey, CSS for SWT is cool!" nonsense. Thanks, Patrick.
