@Mik Actually the closed repository was a big criteria. I would love to chat.

@Victor I am glad, you liked the functionality. It is important that someone from ScrumWorks product finds it useful. Actually the full version of the plugin which allows updates to ScrumWorks is much better.

Hi Gorkem,

My name is Victor Szalvay, I'm the Product Owner for the ScrumWorks product line at Danube. First, thanks for offering a Mylyn plug-in; we tried it yesterday and it rocks! We've been meaning to build one ourselves but obviously haven't done it yet.

We're very interested in contributing to it or helping with the maintenance and upkeep. Please contact me at my first name at danube dot com as we'd like to discuss the future of the product with you.

Regards,
-- Victor

Gorkem, this challenge of deciding whether or not to open source a Mylyn connector is quite familiar to me. I'm even thinking that we should write guidelines on how we make these decisions internally at Tasktop, but it has generally followed the pattern of whether the underlying repository is open source or not. If you're interested in chatting more about this, or figuring out ways to promote a closed source Mylyn connector, just drop me a line (first name at tasktop.com).

Fyi, I recently wrote a related blog entry and will be publishing an interview about this on my blog later in the week.

Mik

@trisa The biggest benefit of this plugin is to the company that makes ScrumWorks. They do not seem to have interest in creating Eclipse plugins. I do not predict that there will be interest to contribute to this work from others. As a result, I do not wish to create yet another OSS project with possibly single developer.

@dave The plugin is tested with ScrumWorks Pro versions 3.0 and 3.1 only.

what did lead you to deny you initial reflex and not to opensource your connector?
