[teiid-dev] Teiid Eclipse Plugin

[John Doyle]

I just posted an initial writeup of my thoughts on what our initial work on DTP should be, and where we might want to go in the medium term with the DTP capabilities.  Please comment as you see fit.

http://www.jboss.org/community/wiki/TeiidProjectsandtheEclipseDTP

As it stands now I have a rudimentary Database Definition, a couple of Driver Definitions, and am working on a Connection Provider.  I would like to have something to show this week, but have some other deadline driven work to complete.
