Updates: Sdo spec, and TCK tests - require # of tests passing

Q) can we claim compliance for the SDO spec if it is not ready for dec 9 A) we will not be 2.1.1 compliant until the SDO spec is complete.

Jaxb - no updates

Dbws - will provide highlight/link to status page - optimistic locking and testing are pending

1.0.2 Bugs - 247511 is being looked at

Review - 248858 - regression since TopLink Action: need to assign 248858

247735 - Blaise, was discussed at a conference, Matt has a corresponding bug 249339 for JAXB that is related - issue is fixed only in JDK 1.6 Action: David: - will follow up with Blaise

246317 - needs to be assigned

Static initialization may inadvertently share between EntityManagers

Repository upgrade to 1.5: - Mike N. Will remove this issue

Eric: Build Status: Version class changes done, reviewed (including on Maven) by Tom, Mitesh - only for trunk, not in 1.0.2

Q) checked in derived objects - must remove. - we could use a manifest-only eclipselink.jar that would be static

- examples, we should capture issues on the examples processes wiki page /EclipseLink/Development/Examples

- Eric to add 2 new sections to the html page, dbws, dbws-util

Bug DB usage: - Tom has volunteered to triage incoming bugs - use "performance" in the keyword field - see proposed link to guidelines in EclipseLink/Development/Bugs - enhancement bugs are reviewed but no target is set unless it is urgent - Procedure Note: if developers see trivial issues like spelling, unused imports - then do it as part of your transaction. Vs running a tool for a wide sweep would cause merge conflicts and need to be planned.

Neil: whiteboard status could mark "trivial_fix/patch" as trivial does not work for "simple fix" Simple_fix, patch_supplied
