  • there is a workaround to build plugins
  • Winston, Geoff and Henrik to work offline
  • Maven3 bug376785
• using Eclipse marketplace for plugins
  • Duncan not convinced, mostly for Eclipse IDE plugins
  • are we fitting into it artificially, not benefits of particular plugins, voting most popular etc
  • Susan to discuss further with Eclipse
• Eclipse committer
  • Henrik - Eclipse protocol - needs to be signed by his employer (not consultants). susan to check
  • Gerrit means he can contribute
• Bundled Plugin circular dependency problems
  • Building without using snapshots has a circular dependency:Hudson war (in core) depends on the plugins, but hudson plugins cannot be built because hudson-plugin-parent isn't built (because core fails too soon)
  • because changes related to groovy and stapler in this release and no interim releases have been done
  • after m2-1 staged today it will be stable and no circular deps
  • resolving the issues of bundled plugins will resolve for the long term. Winston is working on this for M3
• Status of hudson on hudson
  • URL is http://ci.hudson-ci.org
  • Duncan to create Henrik a user, he has job scripts for uploading jobs
  • Duncan to get Sonar latest version setup now disk issues addressed
• Status of gerrit usage? (it is available we just need to sign up: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Gerrit).
  • Github replica is over 4 months old - needs Winston to do.
    
• Plugin testing framework ready.
  • makes matrix jobs for core versions and test cases specify required plugins
  • make instance with plugins, runs, shuts down
  • can run on Hudson on Hudson if it can support firefox. - henrik can setup
  • need to work on how do we get people to use it ie. who will start adding testcases for install tested plugins? - part of M3 review
