- TM Website
- bug 216197 Bugs link on the side nav bar is broken by that latest changes
- Kevin: Discussions fine so far, not touched the code yet?
- Martin: Would like to get more dynamic information onto the homepage in an automated manner e.g. automated release notes with milestones. Avoid merging errors if starting work end this week.
- Bug Fixing - Remember our 2-fix-per-week / 3 unittests-per-milestone plan
- Since our DSDP/TM/Face-to-face Meeting Toronto 17-Sep-2007 it's now 20 weeks / 4 milestones, so each committer is due 40 fixes / 8 unittests
- Current situation is on this bugzilla report
- Unittests: Xuan, DaveM, Javier added some; Martin 0; not sure about others; Martin working on Releng scripts next
- Next BugDay/February_2008 on Feb 29
- Javier busy until end of Feb; no time for Eclipse currently
- DaveD's lazy init done. bug 217556 ServiceSubSystem

- bug 217894 Subsystem Configuration Families - subsystem category would be orthogonal to subsystem family -- family would be related to connector service -- AI All comment on the bug
- Import/export connections rather than profiles - extend the persistence provider for import/export. Use a profile that only contains those things relevant to the exported elements, and merge it on import (or instantiate + copy).
- Uwe: Contributors may have their own format for import/export already
- This is maybe related to bug 160403 Filters should be connection-private by default

- EFS and encodings - No response from platform or TPF teams
- (TPF) product teams extended SystemView in the past, no response from them
