JWT Meetings/Minutes03May12

1. 1. Plans

Augsburg U :

• been busy, not much resources
• still bpmn2 view, but not in juno

Open Wide :

• 1. JWT (from Design, to Runtime on Scarbo / BonitaSoft again), integrated with EasySOA service registry and (wokrflow) repository
• 2. Multi platform processes : typically model your business as a process in a first design phase, then refine / refactor to say which parts are executed on ex. "true" workflow solution like Scarbo, custom code in an existing application like an entreprise portal, or human process
• & some more ideas : document management solution (ECM) integration, browser, wiki...

Discussion about how to do export :

• export either of what's selected (activity tab or subprocess emf element), or composite export
• chris' ideas to select : outline checkbox jface viewer in wizard, also see in the overview page

1. 1. Yearly release

TODO

• May 21 RC : release should be ready (build OK and no more risk in the source code)
• May 23rd ip logs : OK, save for yoann's vote & committer paperwork !
• release review slides by June 1st (RC3), see http://wiki.eclipse.org/SimRel/Simultaneous_Release_Requirements#Release_Review_and_compliance_to_requirements_documentation_.28RC3.29
• also : update the documentation (gmf deps), news & noteworthy

build :

• a lot of projects have switched to tycho / maven. Chris had a look at it but too late & risky (not much doc, specific stuff)
• so rather maintain / patch current CBI build
• & TODO LOW PRIORITY yoann will have a look about what it would mean / entail / require / risks

e4 : see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=377748

• jwt runs on eclipse 4.1 quite will thanks to the compatibility layer, but some minor bugs become visible
• new e4 features : only dependency injection is really interesting
  • injection of eclipse services : TODO LOWER PRIORITY yoann look for references to EclipseWorkspace and other static classes to get an idea of the impact)
  • BUT then not compatible with eclipse 3 (will be supported until 2014 to the least) UNLESS "forward compatibility layer" : TODO LOW PRIORITY yoann risks (because only developed by 1 person ?)
  • NEXT YEAR of ours / servicization of JWT (requires refactoring)

babel translations status : see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=377910

• chris has conf'd it in the build
• TODO yoann test whether it still works / worked in indigo by switching locale
• see also http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=msg&th=7879/7f2c3277ec89f6f161c6f9fb695d155e/

yearly release story :

• eclipse 4 support + svg + bugfixes
• could become : eclipse 4 + design phase tool integration (ECM, SVG)
  • TODO yoann prototype additional feature in the next 2 weeks : export ECM : either webdav / cmis (see apache chemistry lib in http://www.eclipse.org/projects/ip_log.php?projectid=rt.apricot ), or only nuxeo ; maybe also of image / doc / deployables, or further features

1. 1. project management

project plan :

• ok as is for now, refine it in 3 weeks

commiters vote :

• TODO marc email ml committer, remove non-voting older ones (bull)

1. 1. more

• ECE talk ideas : e4 (forward), generic export ECM
• JWT users : some but not autorization right now
• proposal isaas : need time ; pbs competition big players, more technical consistency could be solved ; maybe opportunity when Open Wide and EasiFab talk business together...
