M2E-WTP Development Status Meeting
20/07/2012
General status
- List of bug fixed for the current Milestone changelog
Integration/Milestone builds availability
- Next milestone should be released this monday 23/07/12
- Eclipse's policy says milestone update sites should be hosted at download.eclipse.org
- Are we allowed to release a milestone before passing full IP clearing by EMO? http://wiki.eclipse.org/Development_Resources/HOWTO/Parallel_IP_Process says we are, provided "Incubation" is clearly advertised.
- Do the milestone releases need to be jar signed? No, only the final releases. The signing process is defined at http://wiki.eclipse.org/JAR_Signing
API status
- For historical reasons, many m2e-wtp classes are exposed from public packages. Fred doesn't feel they should be considered public API as they do not always adhere to the principles in http://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse_Quality, so he wants to move all of them to internal packages. It was agreed, from Carl and Chuck experience with WTP, to keep them and mark them as @provisional instead, to minimize disruption for 3rd party adopters.

General status
m2e-wtp's incubation is moving forward!
- The web site has been set up at https://www.eclipse.org/m2e-wtp/
- m2e-wtp's initial contribution has been greenlit by the IP Team to be uploaded to Eclipse's Git repository, under the parallel IP process.
- m2e-wtp integration tests code is available at github
- The issue tracker has been set up in Eclipse Bugzilla. There will be no issue migration from Sonatype's JIRA. All previous issues will need to be reopened manually in BZ.
- A #m2e-wtp IRC chat room is opened at freenode
- A mailing list for discussions about m2e-wtp developement has been set up.
- TODO : Add some documentation for setting up the developement environment (i.e. how to build m2e-wtp)
Build infrastructure
- Due to the m2e-wtp test code not being part of m2e-wtp's initial contribution, m2e-wtp is not built using Eclipse.org's Build infrastructure (similar to m2e).
- Instead, Jenkins jobs have been set up under Red Hat's internal build farm.
- Currently, m2e-wtp compiles correctly against Helios, Indigo and Juno. Integration tests are run against Indigo.
- m2e-wtp is built continuously and CI builds are pushed to a public p2 repository hosted by jboss.org : http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/requirements/m2eclipse/m2e-wtp-indigo/
- TODO : Some tests fail randomly. We need to stabilize them and start from solid foundations before going forward
- TODO : Evaluate the possibility of advertising new dev build availablity on the m2e-wtp-dev mailing list
Backward compatibility
- IBM wishes to keep Helios backward compatibility. m2e-wtp currently compiles against Helios, but needs to be tested against it. However, its unlikely the existing tests will pass in Helios due to some slight changes in behaviour.
- IBM is willing to perform these backward compatibility tests on their infrastructure and eventually contribute patches back to m2e-wtp and m2e.
- not discussed : backward compatibility / coexistence with the current m2eclipse-wtp install base
Planning
- Our objective is to join the Juno SR1 release train on 28/09/2012.
- According to the Juno SR1 calendar, we should target RC1+3 and prepare readyness for wed. 22/08
- we'll work on a release plan (using m2e's release plan as an example),
- m2e-wtp 0.16.0 will focus on stabilization and its main new features will be around the Eclipse to Maven project conversion area (converts eclipse settings to their maven plugin counterpart)
