Other business - Long term tracking items

  • Request from Ian for WTP Kepler articles...
    • Would the WTP project be interested in doing a series of Eclipse and Java EE 7 articles that we would use for the next Eclipse newsletter in July. Each month **we publish a newsletter to over 40K subscribers. The newsletter is usually focused on a specific topic so I was thinking ‘Support for Java EE 7’ might be a good topic.
    • You can see previous newsletters at http://www.eclipse.org/community/eclipse_newsletter/
    • We would need to have 3 articles to support the Java EE 7 topic. You can use existing articles that have already been written or new content. We would need the articles by July 19.

  1. Our plan dates are on 'Friday' of the week. But, we produce and test the build on Thursday of the week, and ideally declare on Thursday. The dates in the Google Web Tools group calendar are for 'Thursdays' since that's a calendar for committers. We give ourselves the buffer to Friday, as our "public" date, that others can pick up our build, just in case a regression is found on Thursday and we have to respin and retest. [Technically, some might say, we still have till the following Tuesday or Wednesday for some "Simultaneous Release" due dates ... but it's hard to do much in that window, without disrupting everyone ... so we'll not use that buffer, except for the worst emergencies.]
