Bug 374666
Bug: Run CBI & PDE builds of platform in parallel
Discussed this bug in today's cbi-dev call. The consensus was:
1) If the qualifier(s) used for the CBI build were different, without development, the comparator tool wouldn't be useful. Conversely, with the qualifiers the same, it would work like it does today and help provide some level of confidence the builds were the same.
2) SR0 with one set of qualifiers and SR1 with another would likely trigger a re-download of all platform bundles. This isn't what we want.
M6 Rebase status
Thanh provided an update that he's rebased the code, and now rebasing the natives. He'll communicate any issues he runs into via. cbi-dev.
M5 or M6 packaging status
Markus was not present.
David questioned the emphasis on testing packaging at this point. Andrew noted it was for testing purposes and to discover any potential issues sooner rather than later. Andrew acknowledged the paradox of decreasing risk by trying packaging now but increasing the risk of the CBI dopple-ganger packages getting into the wild and causing confusion.
Agreement that it does no harm to try packaging early (i.e. now) to test, and that the emphasis should be on closing gaps to make the CBI build output the same as PDE build output. Our packages built should be kept low-profile to avoid them getting out into the wild.
