[jsdl-wg] g-Eclipse implement sweep extension

[geoff]

Hi Mariusz,

It's nice to see implementations appearing.

Have you taken a look at http://forge.ogf.org/sf/go/doc14595?nav=1 , 
which is the latest Sweep document version?

I understand that the working group is hoping to put the latest version 
(i.e. version 13 or later) forward to the wider community for 
consideration as a stable version quite soon and the process could take 
a few months to finalise. I'm reasonably new to this though so maybe 
someone else could provide more detail.

If you notice sweep functionality which your user base has a strong need 
for, and which isn't covered in the latest version of the specification 
or in the wiki ( 
http://forge.ogf.org/sf/wiki/do/viewPage/projects.jsdl-wg/wiki/ParameterSweepExtension 
), then please let us know.
