Announcements

Indigo Status

  •  ?

Misc business

  • Name that release; Indigo+1. We'll examine votes, and be sure there is a clear winner, and that the winner is not objectionable in some way we didn't think of before. Remember, once we come up with the name, it will have to be "vetted" by Ian/Mike to make sure there would be no trademark infringement, etc. (They might be able to do this "in days", before EclipseCon is over ... but not sure.) (Pascal?)
  • Status, plans, and urgency of moving from CVS to GIT. Why it is required, again? (Denis, Wayne?)
  • V6 of the Eclipse Road Map ... mostly here for reference. Any feedback should have already been given, I believe, if I understand the dates ... board review is next day.

Eclipse 4.2 vs. 3.8

Next year, what's primary, what's secondary? Do we buy-in to the Eclipse Project's (implied) proposal?

Think of it in these terms ... there may be a test ... on a scale of 1 to 10, how important is it to your projects and strategic member companies you represent to use 3.8 or 4.2? Think of 1 as very important to stay on 3.8 as primary, 5 is don't care, they are happy to go along with what others need, and 10 is very important to move to 4.2 as the primary?


Long Term Planning discussion

EclipseCon face-to-face is good time to discuss high level, long term issues. The following items are seeds to brainstorming ... please add any of your own. They can range from a thought, question, or a well developed proposal.

  • [We will start with a reminder of our mission, purpose, goals, etc.]
  • How are we doing? Beside 'being on time' are we achieving the best quality that we can? By focusing our projects on items that have biggest return for investment, for Eclipse as a whole?
  • Should we have "must do" items at all? Or, are they just recommendations?
  • Are the requirements about right? Too many? Too few?
  • Should we have requirement related to bug fix rate? Backlog reduction? unit test coverage?
  • Is the release tracking checklist on Portal worthwhile? Should we do away with it? Should we make it better? (More "auto fill-in" ... more "testing" results provide the data for forms, projects provide the exceptions/documentation.
  • Who is the audience(s)? (Projects, PMCs, Planning Council, Adopters).
  • Is yearly release (with two service releases) the right interval? Should maintenance be quarterly? Should releases be every other year? Or, perhaps, every other year be a LTS releases with "off" year having less maintenance emphasis?

Next Meeting

  • April 6, 2011 (our regular "first Wednesday" meeting, at Noon Easter).
