Logistics

• Attending: Paul, Kathy, Eugene, Oliver, Chris, ernest

• Any problems with last week's summary?
  • No problems

4.5.2.1 status

New style PMC approval defect approval requested messages (see last week), should have started coming

• Kathy asked if everyone is getting them.
  • It seems everyone is getting the request but only the approver is getting notification of the approval

Paul notes that in general, the requester should not be approver.

• There is general approval that it would be bad to do that.

IBM asked if 4.5.2.1 builds are starting correctly

• Chris checked and it is happening

TPTP 4.6

Kathy mentioned that a few more defects are being tossed around for promotion to 4.6

Paul has been making good progress on his defects

• Including a few bonus defects
  • Test -- I2 test pass patches this week; build over weekend; good to go

Eugene has 2 P1s left hoping to get 1 this week.

• Still analysis phase to identify cause.
  • Now looking at refresh of profiling data (then load of profiling data)
  • UI part has already been checked in.

Kathy askeds about 260290 patch that is ready but not yet checked in.

Discussion around the segfault from IBM JVM defect

• no response yet from IBM JVM team.

We still need to create documentation skeleton for JVMTI stuff (discussed at F2F)

• Then have the links to web for longer term effort.
• Should appear in schedule for next development milestone.
  • A number of other defects do not directly involve code and can be deferred a bit.

Reattach defect 194081

• Yunan sent update that he and Chengrui should have something done in 1-2 weeks.
  • after that it can be considered for backport to 4.5.2.1

Build transitions

• Itanium build systems shipping logistics underway
  • Serial number discussions underway; systems being touch tested in Oregon
  • still 1-2 weeks from shipping

Kathy mentioned that IBM is pretty much ready to cut over the builds except for Itanium

• This should just be a packaging difference (at IBM) for now
• Itanium to switch over when systems arrive.
• Action item to Chris to notify the Beijing guys.

Misc

Kathy asks about confirming that we decided to NOT do pseudo translation request from Planning council

• That was our decision
• Oliver informed planning council folks at meeting and they accepted our position
