For each WTP release, there are a few bookkeeping tasks unrelated to planning, development, and building, that also need tending to.

They should be recorded here so they're not forgotten. This document is a Draft.

Tasks for Major and Minor Releases

  • Maintenance branch created for future adopter patch builds. Main development will continue in master for the next quarterly simultaneous release.
  • New Help for Old Friends page created, if required

Tasks for All Releases (including Service Releases)

  • Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers: Chuck (Java EE Smoke and also manual checks to general layout, preferences etc for changes from integrated features like m2e, oomph etc..)
  • Eclipse IDE for JavaScript and Web Developers: Ilya Buziuk
  • download.eclipse.org, archive.eclipse.org, build.eclipse.org Site Updates:
  • Update releng files w/ new versions/dependencies:

Project Lead Tasks

Each project lead should perform these tasks for every release.

  • Repositories tagged for the release
  • Bugs triaged/retargeted out of the release
  • Babel repo/branch set/updated for release
  • Version value created in Bugzilla
