Agenda
- Short introduction (I would like to get to know new people a little -- Boris)
- Reduce noise in bugzilla by closing obsolete bugs. There seems to be a lot of them, making it hard to know where contributions would be most helpful --Matthew Hall
- Priorities for 3.4 (Boris' suggestion)
- Improve documentation
- Sheperd existing (and new) contributions into the codebase, hopefully resulting in new committers
- Add sought-after features such as
- convenience API for creating bindings
- more reusable validators and converters
- cell editing support and nested attributes in tables
- support for trees?
- Cross-observable (i.e., mutually dependent) validation constraints (mentioned in bug 197807 --Matt Carter; working code will be posted soon). e.g.
- One or more observables in a set must have a value assigned.
- Value required for one observable if another observable has a value assigned.
- Values required for all observables in a set if any one observable in the set has a value assigned.
- Value not allowed for one observable if an any observable in another set has a value assigned.
- List of open bugs we want to tackle for M4, and 3.4 in general (Need this to focus my scarce time on the important issues -- Boris)
- bug 144260 CellEditor support and builder for viewers --Bradleyjames.gmail.com
- bug 203492 Binding builder investigation --Bradleyjames.gmail.com
- bug 197798 Provide support for Java 5 types --Bradleyjames.gmail.com
- bug 196785 Support for nested attributes in tables -- Boris
- bug 208858 better support for moves in observable lists -- Boris
- bug 180746 TextObservableValue should take a delay-argument -- Boris
