This page lays out milestone plans for the development of Equinox p2 in the Eclipse Helios release (aka the Eclipse Platform version 3.6).
- For a high level feature plan, see Equinox/p2/Galileo/Features.
- For a more detailed view of the UI plan, see Equinox p2 UI Plan.

Previous Plans
M3 - October 30, 2009
-
Define API (All)
-
First step is to gather API feedback (Pascal) - Identify what we want to make API (All)
- We will first focus on the API for Actions and Touchpoints, investigate the creation of a higher level API like the actions provided in UI, and review the rest.
-
- Make p2 run on other frameworks (DJ)
- Have several instances of p2 run at the same time in the same VM - see Equinox/p2/Multiple Agents (John / Pascal)
- Get rid of the generator bundle to the benefit of the publisher (Andrew / Ian)
- Create a repository validation facility (Ian)
- Engine work (Simon)
- Improve repository tools (Repo2Runnable, Mirroring, etc.) (Andrew)
- Remove IU
- Slicing option to always pick the highest version
- Slicing option on the repo2Runnable
-
- Polishing server side provisioning
