Face to Face meeting at EclipseCon 2010

Attendees

  • Motorola (Christian Kurzke, Eric Cloninger, Ruth, Daniel Franco, Guilherme)
  • Nokia (Ronnie King, Gorkem (lead ERCP), Warren Paul)
  • RIM (Adam Abramski, Jon Dearden, Ken Wallis)
  • Symbian (Paul Beusterien)
  • Eclipse Foundation (Ian, Doug Schaeffer)


Project representatives:

  • MTJ: Christian Kurzke
  • Sequoyah: Eric Cloninger
  • CDT: Doug Schaeffer
  • ERCP: Gorkem

Agenda

Roll Call and Review of the Agenda (5 Minutes)

Pulsar review of scope

In the 2009 review, we had 3 main topics: MTJ, CDT and WebTooling, from which we accomplished the MTJ package.

Due to significant changes in the mobile landscape, we should refocus. maybe:

  • Java (incl. J2ME, RIM, Android)
  • Native (Symbian, Android Native, Meego?)
  • Web (Symbian Web UI, etc.)

Ronnie: Should we maintain the focus of Pulsar on a "product".

DougS: proposed a new "mobile" Platform focused plugin fest.

John D: What is our long-term goal, are we creating products or frameworks.

Ian: Successful example: Eclipse "Team Provider" Framework

Ken: Pulsar is solving a too "high level" problem, common code is not used enough. Pulsar should be more of a "portal"

EricC: Who creates a product?: RIM, not strongly branded bundled, and includes a update site. Motodev Studio, installer & update site, Nokia: similar, branded tool.

Driving Commonality

what would member companies want from Pulsar

Nokia: Interest in MTJ (for S40) and Native Symbian development. Also discussons with Meego.

  • interest in Native, C++ development:
    • Project Build (signing, multiple targets),
    • Discovery of devices (over BT, USB, wifi, etc),
    • Publishing to developer portals
    • tooling around Meego
  • MTJ
    • MIDP 3 support, which would include CDC support

Symbian Foundation:

  • Native - similar to Nokia.
  • Web Tooling
    • Symbian is looking to fund development of a Web Development environment
      • Chrominum based, support development cycle including packaging, deploy, debug, etc.
    • very cross platform.
    • Ian reached out to JIL (no interest) and BONDI (curious)


Sony Ericsson:

  • currently doesnt have a branded product
  • interest to improve Android Tooling
    • e.g. Profiling, Code coverage, UI development


RIM:

  • Java
    • J2ME+Rim
  • Web
    • Widgets (packaged HTML/Javascript) packaging, deployment
    • First class application on device
    • shares packaging, signing, etc. (not using MTJ components, but uses legacy RIM code)
    • uses JSDT, XUL runner
    • has proprietary debugging protocol between JavaScript engine and IDE (emulator working, device planned)
  • implementing JIL, own widgets are W3C inspired


MOTOROLA:

Android Tooling

  • Native Build, Packaging
  • possible Flash/Air will be of interest
  • managing Device Specific SDK add-ons
    • sub-SDK level, API package level
  • common launch config
  • static code analysis (possibly with Sony Ericsson)


Possible common features

  • Possible SDK management
  • Signing
  • Common UI code/Frameworks for common tasks
    • Could possibly be shared from WTP project, which already has abstractions / connectors to server infrastructure


Architecture

We need a high level (~18 - 24 month?) goal which we go towards.

Android / Java seems like a high importance

  • How is Android different?
    • JDT is focal

Roadmap / Architecture

Ronnie: We should have domain experts for 3 areas: Native, Java, Web. Each expert (team) should address - name desired shared functionality

DougS: Identify Missing vs. Duplicate "stuff".
