Meeting Title: TM Committer Phone Meeting
Date & Time: Wednesday May 28, 2008 at 1500 UTC / 0800 SFO / 1000 Rochester / 1100 Toronto / 1600 London / 1700 Salzburg
Dial-in: SkypeOut: +99008275601400 (free!) - powered by Highspeedconferencing.com

Backup1: Martin to call everybody by Skype
Backup2 dial-in: International +44 (0)1452 567588 / Freephone +1 (866) 6161738 / UK 08712460713 / Passcode: 0587322148 #

MartinO to start conference call - please dial in using the numbers above.
Please be available for Skype Chat in parallel to the call. MartinO will start Skype chat just prior to call.
Skype dial-in: martin.oberhuber, ddykstal (or david_dykstal), david-k-mcknight, kevin.j.doyle, xuan.chen886, rupen.mardirossian, javier.montalvoorus, eugenetarassov, michael_scharf, uwe.stieber, radoslav.gerganov, wrsfburton.

Attendees

  • IBM - Xuan Chen, Dave McKnight, Dave Dykstal, Kevin Doyle
  • Wind River - Martin Oberhuber, Michael Scharf
  • ProSyst - Radoslav Gerganov
  • Regrets: Uwe, Eugene, Felix, Javier, Rupen

This is an Open call, so anyone else can join (though we expect the talk to be interesting for committers only).

Notes

  • Last meeting: DSDP/TM/Committer Phone Meeting 21-May-2008
  • Skype Call Quality
    • Highspeedconferencing.com -- 7 participants: speaker hard to understand at times; much background noise for Michael; bad for Rado, but bearable
    • Looks like non-speakers are totally muted, system needs some time to adapt when somebody starts talking
    • Will use normal direct Skype again next week, but can use HSCNF as fallback if there are more than 8 participants.

New Stuff

  • Release Review next Wed June 4 at 8am PST (our usual committer meeting time)
    • Want to move next committer meeting to Thursday Jun 5 at 8am PST (same time), ok? Or do it after/at our Monthly Meeting Jun4 at 9am PST?
    • Our slides: Minideck (PPT | PDF, All slides (PPT | PDF)
    • Full Ganymede Slides - We are #22ff on the Overview deck, alphabetically pretty soon
    • For our project: Community looks very healthy; Code and API additions look very good, healthy in terms of size; Bug backlog is a problem; Multiple APIs, disconnect of "Remote Development Tools" initiative
  • Project Plan: Development Resources/Project Plan Status
    • Ours is XML now, on http://www.eclipse.org/dsdp/tm/development/tm_plan_3_0.xml -- also in your www-tm-development project
    • Bjorn's tooling renders it to PHP - bottom has a link for raw XML
    • Everybody can edit the plan at any time to fix typos etc
    • Target Operating Environments (Reference Platforms):
      • Get rid of Win2K, Ubuntu
      • Mark Mac "Secondary" Platform; up to Java 1.5; not allow deliberate regressions!
    • Automated bug queries in Project Plan
      • Use bugzilla "plan" keyword plus "Other related bugs..." hyperlink in a paragraph after the bug list
    • AI Martin update the project plan as discussed
  • Ganymede Promotions
    • Will do a 15-minute Screencast of TM for EMO Marketing - Ideas for things to show?
      • Creating Connections, Filters, Drag&Drop, ...
      • Useractions: Should work for users
    • Listing New&Noteworthy for ZX
    • BugDay/May 2008 on May 30, who will be on IRC?
  • Late API Changes / Additions
    • Must decide how we want to handle Apidoc bugs
    • Take the time now to review and improve unclear API descriptions
    • All open API bugs
    • bug 234215 bug 234030: AbstractSystemViewElementAdapter#doDelete*(): Treat Exception same as SystemMessageException? Treat "cancelled" same as Exception? -- AI DaveD take bug 234215 and talk to DaveM about bug 234030 - Probably write a Unittest
      • Strive for documentation in one place, typically the interface; Get rid of docs from implementations completely, or use {@inheritDoc}
      • Especially now during endgame we shouldn't change the codebase so much, but invest heavily in cleaning up API Docs to clarify expected semantics -- basically reengineer current code to come up with textual description of expected semantics. A very good investment in the future (less work on future bug fixes).
      • For current production code, it's now OK to keep existing behavior (only refactor), even if it looks suspicious.

    • bug 190231 Subsystem UI->non-UI: Go for it? Have it in 3.0 or 3.1 but not in 3.0.1. DaveD: Go, DaveM: Too risky, defer to 3.1
    • bug 230298 (api)(breaking) ISystemPropertyConstants should not extend IBasicPropertyConstants -- Already fixed, AI Martin mark bug fixed
    • bug 185348, bug 204796 Terminal non-API Michael to try
    • bug 233480, UI Change for ServerLauncher -- suggest proposing a newConnectionWizard (bound to systemType) -- see Discovery


Steps Towards Ganymede

  • DSDP/TM/3.0 Ramp down Plan for Ganymede
    • We have RC2, so from now on EVERY checkin must get a +1 by a reviewer BEFORE (except emergencies, documentation-only or unittest-only things). Also applies to "incubation". Rules do not apply to TCF
    • Please do NOT only ask me for reviewing, it doesn't scale
  • TM 3.0 RC2 Testing Status
    • Committers step up with good example to draw community members to it!
    • Somebody must test our integration with the JEE EPP Package
    • Every committer to invest 2 hours minimum in testing; Hi-pri fixes OK, martin will releng to update site so testers can update easily;
  • Bug Triage
    • AI Everyone must review your assigned bugs and move to 3.0.1 where possible
    • All "3.0" assigned bugs must be triaged now and either assigned a proper RC milestone or 3.0.1 (with the exception of Documentation-only fixes)
    • Work on remaining ones by priority
    • Open RC2 Assigned bugs, open 3.0 Assigned bugs
    • Severity Major, Hi-Priority
    • Current Statistics: 1 blocker (Martin), 1 critical (Martin), 8 major (DaveD, Kevin, Martin, Michael), 23 other P2's -- was 10 major / 20 P2's last week
    • Community contributions: Only few unapplied patches right now, last chance to apply now before 3.0 (see also the Bug Process Page for a query)
  • Martin's new Build System for Dave
    • In the works
  • New and Noteworthy
    • I'll need a list of new features for a New&Noteworthy, and for the Release Review. Release Review material is due next week.
    • See CDT/User/NewIn50 for example; for TM, I put most news into our Build Notes already, so it should be possible to compile the N&N out of the build notes
    • For the N&N, please make screenshots and work on "your" new features, e.g.
      • Useractions
  • Cleanup Work
    • Besides the hi-priority issues, there is a LOT of cleanup to do. What do we consider must-have's?
      • Unittests, unittests, unittests!
      • New releng scripts on dsdp.eclipse.org (Martin: must-have before his vacation)
      • Copyright Year Updates (Run the releng Copyrights Tool)
      • Migration Notes (for 2.0 / for 1.0?)
      • API Tooling Javadocs(@noextend and friends) - bug 227368, bug 225529 comment 4 and bug 225529 comment 6 - DSDP/TM/Code Ownership
      • Review and improve Userdocs; we have several open bugs here
      • Review and improve Javadocs; lots still missing, unclear, duplicated
      • Fix broken hyperlinks in the docs, fix HTML/XML errors (which can make the indexer not work)
      • Get rid of compiler warnings wherever possible
      • Add more Unittests -- ideally write an accompanying unittest for every bugfix
      • Run Findbugs -- Update site on http://findbugs.cs.umd.edu/eclipse, Quickdocs by Rado in tm-dev E-Mail
        • Question about filtering false positives posted on fb-discuss link
    • TM Website: revamp should really be complete for Ganymede! Kevin and Martin won't have time. DaveD will try to get to it, but cannot promise.

What will happen after Ganymede?

  • Going for 3.1 next year?
    • Not breaking API in 3.1 means that we may introduce new concepts as duplicated new API at places, and deprecate the old one so I cannot see anything against 3.1
    • DaveD: 3.1 is harder than 4.0 but it's worth it -- need to be careful with making changes
    • Create a bugzilla 3.1 target milestone to start the planning process / reassign bugs on review
    • Martin recommends going 3.1, but reserving the right to require Java5 on the Client, 1.4 on the Server.
  • TM Future Planning Wiki for collecting ideas. Some first thoughts on Priorities?
    • AI Martin create an initial 3.1 plan, update the Planning Wiki
    • Connection Grouping - be Multicore aware
    • Rewrite the Tableview to be really aware of Properties
    • More dynamic subsystem enablement and configuration (e.g. detect UNIX vs Windows automatically at runtime)
    • Hi-Performance, caching EFS provider
    • Bring TCF to Maturity
    • Quality: Add unittest coverage, reduce bloat, improve performance, streamline APIs

Vacation, away

  • Martin vacation June 11 - 22 -- AI Martin finish and test the new Build scripts on dsdp.eclipse.org till then
  • DaveM vacation June 16 - 20
  • DaveD in July
