- Sirius 4.0 was presented at EclipseCon France in June 2016, with new features including improved internationalization, SVG rendering, and integration with EMF Edit. - Statistics on Sirius development were provided, with 10 active committers, 84 fixed bugs, and over 900 commits in the last year. - The talk demonstrated how to define customizable properties views for complex Ecore models in Sirius using dynamic mappings based on property types. This allows automatically generating appropriate widgets without defining each one individually.
