Review of Last Meeting

• Architecture Council/Meetings/October 10 2013
• Still open items moved to #Action_Items

New Topics

General Topics

• Eclipse Infrastructure - git, Gerrit, Maven, Hudson, Bugzilla, ...
  • Hudson Instance per Project (HIPP) working really well
    • These are not VM's , just a Java process running under a different user ID
    • Working on final touches to allow committers start/stop/restart processes via a Web UI
    • Windows or Mac slaves only on Shared Instance
      • Platform and p2 are doing both HIPP and master right now for that reason
      • Repeating CI builds on HIPP plus testing on Master - master become more stable as more jobs have moved to HIPP
    • Gerrit Verify job, and publishing direclty to Downloads are the two big wins

• Updates from the Board or the EMO
  • Wayne presented on bug 413169 Calling Home Policy to the Board at ECE
    • Scoped down now to "uploading usage data" specifically
