April 3, 2007

Bugs

• we are going through all our bugs trying to get the inbox in a good state
• also are working on marking the target milestones so we can ensure that nothing major gets missed for 3.3
• progress is being made
• still a bit of work to be done before everything is sorted

Feature work

• osgi console in running instance - not for 3.3
• jar processor - andrew to prepare note for pmc
• perhaps some jar processor related items in pde/build
• how to display to the user that bundles are unresolved
  • new page in the "about" area that lists unresolved bundles and shows info from -diag command

Polish bugs

• the polish team is collecting a list of items for 3.3
• dj collecting the list and will send to martin this afternoon

PermGen

• use the vm info file?
• since its getting worse from release to release, is there any work the performance team can do to help?
• run with jconsole to get more info on what is in perm gen space

Performance

• jar signing
• startup tests...are they slow due to signing?
• seem to be up and down though
• need to do some performance tests with/without jar signing
• the test framework was changed to use the exe...when was that? actually they support the exe but by default use the jar

Launchers

• the launchers aren't in the equinox downloads
• need to add the exes and launcher jars to the downloads
• do we need a click-through for the equinox sdk downloads?
• or should we make it so it runs with -noexit and -console
• we don't have an exe in the sdk zip

s390

• andrew to work on this
• creating new folders, etc
