Agenda, 2022-07-26

  • [Thomas] Use of Visual Studio Code code in Theia
    We now can easily use code from VS Code (thanks to the work from Colin). But is it a good idea? Depending on internal classes from VS Code makes updating to newer versions of "monaco" harder. On the up-side, we don't have to implement some stuff ourselves. Discuss!

  • @theia/git extension uses a fork of dugite and related dugite-extra, both still hosted on the theia-ide org. It seems there is some maintenance to be done on these repos.
    • a long time ago we decided that the theia git extension should be moved out of the main repo. Now might be a good time to do that, or get rid of the git extension. Is anyone interested enough in the extension, to maintain it in a separate repo?
