A package was submitted to savannah.nongnu.org
This mail was sent to address@hidden, address@hidden
Andrew John Hughes <address@hidden> described the package as follows:
License: gpl
Other License:
Package: CASHeW-s
System name: cashew-s
Type: non-GNU
Description:
The purpose of this project is to facilitate the composition of semantic web
services. It consists of two parts:
* a process editor, which allows the individual services to be visually
composed. The primary output target will be OWL-s, with possible extensions in
the form of high-level functions. as seen in functional languages.
* a workflow engine, that will convert its input (primarily OWL-s) into a
process algebraic form, and then execute it. The individual service calls are
bound to the actions in the algebra.
The former will be implemented as a plug-in for the Eclipse development
environment using Java. The latter will be written in the functional langauge,
Haskell.
At present, no source code is available, as the development of the languages
used is still in progress.
A further synopsis of the project is at:
http://www.dcs.shef.ac.uk/~barry/CASheW-s/
Other Software Required:
For the Haskell side:
-- The Glasgow Haskell Compiler (GHC) with generics extensions (currently
only in CVS)
-- Other supporting Haskell libraries such as HaXML and Haifa
(https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/haifa/)
For the Java side:
-- The Eclipse development environment. This has been successfully
compiled natively using gcj, part of the GCC, and uses SWT (a native toolkit)
as opposed to Swing.
Other Comments:
Is there any advice the Savannah team can give as to the legal aspects of
licensing an Eclipse plug-in under the GPL? Eclipse itself is under the
Eclipse Public License, IIRC.
