EclipseLink/Development
EclipseLink Development Process
The development process for working on EclipseLink is based on the agile development process Scrum. In a nutshell, a prioritized backlog is created and kept up to date using input from the community. The task list is the work that is done in a Sprint, organized by component.
Features and Enhancements
Features and Enhancements will have a BugZilla enhancement associated with it. A functional specification and design document will be created for each each feature. A review of these docs will be initially done by mailing list (eclipselink-dev@eclipse.org) and by meeting if followup is required. Prior to code being checked in, code reviews will be done through the mailing list (eclipselink-dev@eclipse.org).
Bugs
Docs are usually note required for bug fixes. Prior to code being checked in, code reviews will be done through the mailing list (eclipselink-dev@eclipse.org).
