  • Candidate driver: TPTP-4.5.2-200901201658.

• The test pass reports are running daily.
  • Note, PMC members from IBM (internal build site) can now generate a test pass report between the reporting cycles (9 AM and 3 PM ET). For more information, see Joel.

• Reminder to Project Leads to ensure the documentation technical review test cases are executed during I3 TP1.

• Status:
  • Currently we are >55% complete and <2% failure.
  • Test Project:
    • Will complete functional test suite by the end of the week.
    • The documentation technical review test cases will be completed Mon/Tue of next week.
  • Platform/Trace Project:
    • Will complete on target.
    • Joanna will check in test results previously submitted by Intel China before they broke for Chinese New Year.

Miscellaneous

• TPTP 4.5.2 appears to be running more smoothly than previous releases.
  • Decreased delays of builds.

M5 Smoke Test

• We will be smoke testing TPTP 4.5.3 from 02/03 - 02/05 in preparation for dropping to Galileo M5 +2 on 02/06.

Builds

• There are two blocking issues for TPTP coming in Galileo M5:
  • 252501
  • 262936

• Since we do not have a TPTP 4.5.2 branch and TPTP 4.5.3 builds, we can:
  • Split streams before TPTP 4.5.2 ends.
    • Release Engineering cost (e.g. split, builds, etc.).
    • Dual maintenance required.
  • Integrate fixes into TPTP 4.5.2.
    • Increased probability of regression.
    • Invalidates our I3 TP1 since changes are far reaching.
    • Release Engineering cost (e.g. plug-in/feature version numbers).

• Decision: Split streams before TPTP 4.5.2 ends becuase:
  • Manage the risk of regression in TPTP 4.5.2.
  • TPTP 4.5.3 builds are required in two weeks.
  • Dual maintenance is minimal since we have shut-down TPTP 4.5.2.

• Joel and Josh will handle the Release Engineering work (e.g. split, builds, etc.) and send an email to the TPTP PMC mailing list with the details.

• To manage the dual maintenance, the remainder of TPTP 4.5.2 will be in PMC-level approval mode.
  • Paul update the TPTP 4.5.2 schdule with this change.
  • Project Leads and Joel/Josh (email to TPTP PMC mailing list) to communicate this change.

• We will complete 252501 and 262936, and build for Monday.

Joanna is moving on

• As of 01/31, Joana is moving on to another role in IBM.

  • Both require CVS committership.
    • Joanna will nominate them as comitter in TPTP 4.5.2 and then Componetn/Project Leads in TPTP 4.5.3.
  • Joanna will transition Ernest and Kathy through TPTP 4.5.2 and first part of 4.5.3 (target: 03/01).
  • Oliver will host a call with Ernest and Kathy to meet-and-greet.
  • Paul will send TPTP references/links to Ernest (ernest@ca.ibm.com) and Kathy (kathy@ca.ibm.com).

• Joanna has closed on the Eclipse 3.5/TPTP 4.5.3 resource plan with IBM before moving on.
