Equinox Summit 2007 topics
Revision as of 21:34, 9 August 2007 by Pascal rapicault.ca.ibm.com (Talk | contribs)
- Jeff McAffer
- More contributions. This might be a meta-topic but there are likely tangible steps that the current team can take to be more open to new contributions.
- Security directions. We have new contributions for JAAS, JCA, Keystore etc. Lets talk about where this work will take us
- Services. Prosyst has contributed several new services recently. We should review these with an eye to graduating and integrating them into the main stream.
- PDE build. How can we make it better (incremental, easier to setup, ...) and how will the provisioning work impact build.
- Chris Aniszczyk
- PDE Build. How can we tool PDE Build... in terms of having an easy way to get a user started with an automated build. Similar to how PDE provides a .product file for helping build/package RCP applications, maybe we need something similar for an automated build.
- PDE and "Components." PDE has notions of groups of plug-ins in various places... (target definitions, product files, features, etc...) does it make sense to abstract this concept out a bit so it can be reused by other places.
- PDE and Provisioning. How will tooling for provisioning work, what happens to features and update sites?
- PDE Build and Incremental Build. How do we make PDE Build do incremental build? How does this intersect with provisioning?
- Scott Lewis
- Security: Authentication and platform login. Integration of JAAS. Extension points and services for extensibility?
- Bundle distribution: How to allow component-level (groups of plugins, with various dependencies) be easily distributed/installed? How do (bundle) repositories (e.g. OBR, JSR-something) fit in?
- Related to bundle distribution: How to support EF project component distribution (without features).
- Accessing PDE programmatically: Need PDE APIs...e.g. https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=169340
- Pascal Rapicault
- Explore the intersection of the equinox provisioning and security work. Is the intersection secure provisioning?
- What integration are seeking between PDE and equinox provisioning?
- Looking forward with PDE Build, should we just build in the workspace?
