== Improve support for established JavaScript technologies ==
+
== Eclipse M4 ==
* Continue the working on Integration of dependency management tools like node.js/bower/npm into JSDT, thus in order to make it possible for developers to use such tools right from the IDE.
+
=== Integration with Javascript Package managers ===
A number of CQs is created and approved, due to make it possible to invoke native node.js/bower/npm utilities installed in user environment:
+
* Integration with Bower and NPM.  
  * https://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9479 - Use of node.js installation on user environment Version: v0.12.2 and later
+
** https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=481828 - Node.js-based JavaScript Dependency Management Tools: bower, npm
  * https://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9487 - Use of npm installation on user environment Version: v2.7.5
+
** See also JSON Editor contribution
  * https://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9488 - Use of Bower installation on user environment Version: v1.4.1 and later
+
  * https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=459732 - Bower IDE contribution
+
  
* An extension point for configuring and invoking node.js and npm. The default implementation should allow users to select their node/npm installation as preference but tools like JBT should be able to extend and provide embedded/preconfigured node.js implementations.
+
== Eclipse M5 ==
 +
=== Ground work for Parser change ===
 +
* https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=484598 - Disable TypeBinding and deprecate internal ast model
 +
* https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=481706 - Update or replace JSDT parser to support ES6
  
* JSON Editor integration contribution is going in order to let developers to create/edit/modify JSON files. From JSDT point of view the goal is to provide a support for bower.json/.bowerrc/packages.json files editing which is a part of dependency management tools integration work.
+
=== JSON Editor ===
The BugZilla & CQs are finally created - one for JSON editor itself and one for minimal-json:
+
* https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=471820 - [contribution] Eclipse WTP JSON Editor
 +
 
 +
=== Integration with Javascript task managers ===
 +
* https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=484418 - Need to improve js tools (npm / bower) launch
  
  * https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=471820 - [contribution] Eclipse WTP JSON Editor
+
=== JavaScript Debugger ===
  * http://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10061 - minimal-json Version: 0.9.4
+
* https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=479466 - Support node.js debugging
  * http://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9924 - JSON Editor
+
* https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=485188 - Initial Contribution of Google Chrome Dev Tools with new namespace
  
* Parser/scanner/validator changes in order to make it compatible to ECMA5 at least (but better to ECMAScript 2015)
 
  
  * https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=223131 - [language support] Add ecmascript4 /JavaScript 2 compiler compliance level
+
== Eclipse M6 ==
  * https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=473559 - [language support] Add support for ECMAScript 2015
+
  * https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=477031 - [ES6] Support for ECMAScript 6 validation
+
  * https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=477030 -  [ES6] Support for ECMAScript 6 syntax coloration
+
  * https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=471853 - JavaScript marks ".delete" and ".instanceof" as bugs
+
+
* The maintenance for bug fixing and solving the performance issues like the following:
+
  * Limit the scope of files to be parsed by JSDT as many of cases don't require all the existing project files to be parsed in all the cases.
+
  * Work on Performance issues: We've added a way to skip/disable the internal JSDT parsing/validation. Now we need to add an extension mechanism in order to allow external validation.
+
  * Other performance and stability issues (BugZilla, Automated Error Reporting System, and so on)
+
  
  The issues:
+
=== ES6 Compatible parser ===
  * https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=466260 - OutOfMemoryError in Parser.createStringLiteral (4582)
+
* https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=481706 - Update or replace JSDT parser to support ES6
  * https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=474549 - copying two lines of javascript freezes eclipse

 +
* https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=481344 - JSDT should support the use of sourcevalidation extension point
  
* The current 'as-you-type' validation API limits the contributors (JBT, for example) in ability to provide a fast validation mechanism for XML/HTML validation. We need to extend/modify an existing API to make it more flexible/fast.
+
=== Integration with Javascript task managers ===
 
+
* https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=483398 - JavaScript Task Runner: grunt
* The HTML validation doesn't work for custom tags and attributes, and doesn't provide a way for adopters to infer custom validators as well (see angular's ng-* attributes). We need to propose a way for adopters to extend the current validation with custom validators.
+
* https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=483399 - Need to add JavaScript Build System: gulp

The issues:

==  Integration with 3rd Party JavaScript tools ==

+
* Provide a solution for an automatic disabling of JSDT internal parsing/validation in case when Tern.java is installed in user's environment, to make JSDT not to consume the resources on parsing/validation/content assisting while this work is doubled and is done better by Tern.java. This could be done by either the configuration of JSDT by a JBT's jst.jsdt plug-in or by Tern.java itself (by its JSDT integration plug-in).
