Review of Last Meeting
- Architecture Council/Meetings/June 11 2015
- Still open items moved to #Action_Items
New Topics
- Feel free to fill in, but not during the meeting :)
Development Funding
- Wayne: Development Funding
- Funding stuff that's common and critical for the IDE - So far: p2, Marketplace, ...
- Umbrella bug 471462 looking for Priorities ... Javascript situation partially inspired the initiative, but not sure if that's P1
- Looking for Process to do this
EDP Update
- Wayne: Blocker bug 463857 - please look at the bug and give feedback, are we targeting the right things ?
- Some runtime work seems unnecessarily hindered by the EDP; simplify project creation, release reviews, continuous integration
- Would like a complete rewrite - much effort but probably doable
- Need a final form by mid October
- Wayne would write the draft, but need direction first and input after the draft (and help writing sections would be appreciated)
- HOWTO docs are too big currently ... hopefully trimming the EDP will trim the HOWTO as well
- Max: Would like to encourage (or at least allow) faster release cadence - what's the minimum necessary that needs to be done for release ?
Hackathon Concept
- Wayne: bug 471463 looking for a list of bugs that could be resolved in 2-3 hours
- Want to get back to a habit of marking bugs bugday or similar
- Focus people on what we need them to do ... turn more people into contributors
- Perhaps there's many bugs that stay unadressed since we feel we'd need to get together in a room
- For example, have LaunchBar and Docker work totether
- AC to identify 4 "hard problems" that we'd plan addressing during EclipseCon as a "development experience"
- Encourage the right set of people to come to the conference and participate
