 = Gnowsis in Eclipse =
 Sooner or later (probably September 2006) we will move the gnowsis gui to '''Eclipse RCP'''. The big advantage of that is that we have a nice gui and a community that knows how to make frameworks.

 yes, views. oh boy, views. Heiko Maus always wanted to have views.

+= Trying out the RCP, a experience report =
+by Leo Sauermann and Benny Horak
+
+We started by downloading Eclipse 3.2 and slavishly following the Hello World Tutorial here:
+ * http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-RCP-1/tutorial1.html
+
+ok, all worked, the empty "hello World" deployment thingy with .exe file and so on weights 7MB. wuff but ok.
+
+Then Leo decided to rename the packages from "semanticdesktop" to "com.example.semanticdesktop" and that was the last time we saw our hello world. shoots, restart.
+
+After Benny got the control, he changed the plugins first window from title "Hello World" to "Semantic Desktop". 
+
+Hours later....
+
+ok, we try now the "mail demo" and extend it with a RDF view showing hte pimo tree. 
+First problem: we don't want to import openrdf directly but instead import it as OSGI bundle (woa, cool).
+Hm, the best approach seems the wizard "plugin from existing jar archives".
+that generates useful output.
