Minutes

  1. Release Status
    • Revisit release date - Eclipse legal cannot schedule a release review before the end of October, and more time to finish/harden new features will be good. So we will move PTP 3.0 to to Nov 30 - pending Eclipse release review scheduling.

    • Will need to use intermin build for SC tutorial
    • Wyatt is planning a live CD with PTP, wonders which release to use. Suggested to aim at 3.0
    • No objections to moving release date to Nov 30
  2. Helios
    • We plan to join the Eclipse simultaneous release for mid-2010
    • See Helios_Simultaneous_Release
    • This means earlier integration with Eclipse Helios release and the next CDT
    • But it also means less confusion for our users, and PTP availability on the main Eclipse.org update sites
  3. PTP Status
    • Greg working on service model
    • Import/export of service configurations
    • PBS Job scheduler
  4. RDT Status
    • Chris reports working on backporting Remote XL C/C++ toolchain to PTP 2.1.x to support Remote Scanner Discovery and better handling of remote environment variables. Working on Remote Scanner Discovery. Currently hampered by bugs in CDT 5.0.x

  7. ETFw Status
    • Beth plans to put new "External Tools Feedback" view as part of ETFw - will show an XML file generated by another tool, in an eclipse view, and map to source code lines (
    • Greg presented PTP to ORNL today and they expressed an interest in ETFeedback view, wanted to know granularity (map to character positions e.g. variable locations too? Beth said yes, can make sure this is supported.)
    • Wyatt working on putting together a live DVD for demos at SC09 and wondered about what version of PTP to include.
    • Also reported that, since we're entering the SC crunch now, probably no new features for ETFw until afterward. Mostly bug fixing. Still looking at RDT integration. Having some issues with RDT.
  8. Other new contributions?
    • Max is working on new UPC project wizard. Concerns about contributing prematurely (but delaying PTP 3.0 a month helps this). Concerns about if it belongs in CDT vs PTP (including with PTP can get it out very soon, vs waiting for CDT will mean mid-2010). It can always be contributed to CDT later. Max's PPW (Parallel Performance Wizard) needs this wizard for ease of use. Current wizard is based on Berekeley UPC.

    • PGAS Conference - PTP mini-tutorial related to UPC tools (Beth)
    • Eclipse.org disk space quotas (Beth) - we will delete builds downloads for already-released versions of PTP (<3.0) since they are available as official releases now. Will link to these from wiki builds pages.
  10. Next meeting
    • Tuesday Nov 10 (the week before Supercomputing 2009 Conference)
