- Compiler Warnings: See Committer Howto
- Currently 484 Java warnings + 642 Javadoc warnings (Martin already fixed about 150 + 250)
- Find bugs, Increase contributor confidence, Improve code readability, Fix javadoc
- Dont chase the warnings (yet) but fix them while you are working: You can apply a filter in the Problems view if you want, e.g. "don't show String Javadoc:"
- No more checkins of code with warnings (may be checked automatically in the future)
- Be careful when fixing warnings: assume side effects of method calls!
- Code Ownership:
- It is beneficial to have clear ownership and responsibility
- External contributors can also be owners, but have an associated committer as well
- See (and edit) DSDP/TM/Code Ownership
- Features: Jakarta-commons, JUnit-framework, Discovery, EFS-Experimental, WR-Terminal (bug 152826)
- Refactorings: This week we should really be done!
- Subsystem Factory vs. Configuration: Going with Configuration for now, Martin started renaming *factory where he found it while working on compiler warnings.
- Kushal IConnectorService
- Kushal passwordPersistence
- API Things
- Martin did some minor extension point cleanup (rename), see build notes of N-builds
