• DONE Bugzilla components - sign-off on final changes below

http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/eclipselink-dev/msg00640.html

• Automated Testing
  • Need SRG test models for JPA, MOXy and SDO
    • DB components of those tests should be simple enough to run on Derby
    • Need to test Core SRG on Derby
• Bug Prioritization and targetting
  • Currently more bugs are scheduled for 1.0.1 then we are likely to fix in that time
  • We currently do not have a system to ensure a bug has a published priority level
  • We should discuss how will we deal with these issues
• Bug DB usage
  • If you are working on a bug, assign it to yourself.
    • add dummy inbox to the cc list.
  • Set the target milestone to the correct milestone.
    • Confusion/concern on this part
    • Milestones
      • 1.0M9 are bugs that are to be fixed by the the corresponding milestone build.
      • 1.0 is a bug that is to be fixed by 1.0, but has no current target milestone.
      • 1.0.1 new bugs should be filed against this target
• Bug council
  • Introduce notion of Bug council
  • Wed 2:30pm
    • Untargeted bugs are going to be reviewed by bug council on a weekly basis (current proposed time is directly after weekly status meeting (2:30 ET on Wednesdays).
      • A milestone will be set - or set to future
      • Bug may get assigned
    • When you enter a new bug, leaving it untargeted means that the bug council will review to decide which release it is targeted for.
    • If you know which milestone the bug will be fixed in, assign it accordingly.
    • The new target - future - is for bugs that don't have a target yet.
• Code headers
  • Ensure Header is dual license EDL + EPL
    • Found and fxed some build xml files.
  • Ensure contributor is correct - new code should have code author (no - intial code from oracle)
    • Found and fxed some build xml files.
