Dali Indigo (3.0) Planning Meeting
June 21st, 2010 14:00 UTC
Attendees: Neil, Karen, Shaun, Paul, Brian, Tran, Nan
Agenda
- Retrospective
- Determine themes for Dali Indigo release
- Prioritize features in the various themes
- Discuss any new enhancement requests
- Ad-hoc items
Retrospective
- Good
- Scrapped the mid year release, which allowed more complete JPA 2.0 support to be delivered
- Model is holding up fairly well to new platforms and spec versions
- Looking at EclipseLink test models to find corner cases
- Perhaps EL should link to related test model from bug or wiki spec
- Bad
- Translators continue to be problematic, but saw some incremental improvements this year
- More wiki specs would be helpful, where description in the bug isn’t sufficient
- More involvement with review on EclipseLink features
- Should join the spec committee from tooling side
- Eclipse infrastructure continues to be slow, but manageable
- Builds - Full WTP build still fails too often, and is slow.
- One option is to move to independent Hudson

Notes
- Participation in JPA spec, is this helpful?
- Seems this would be nice at least as a way to get deeper understanding of feature set
- Would also be able to provide feedback directly into the committee
- Let’s try to get someone on the spec committee for next spec revision
- Perspective vs views…perhaps we should be asking if we should add our views to the current perspective.
