- UNC Path support
- We didn't support UNC paths very well in 3.4
- Significant effort is likely needed to address this, but there has been very little demand for it
- Minimally should try to fail gracefully if we don't support it
- Composite applications
- Tom gave an overview of composite application framework progress
- There was some brainstorming of how p2 would interact with a composite application hierarchy
- API freeze
- Little or no API work left to do for 3.5, so we are on track for API freeze
- Transforms
- Currently transforms are bundles, but considering making them framework extensions instead
- We have problems on startup because the transform bundles are not starting early enough when using simpleconfigurator.
- If the registry bundle starts before the transforms, then the transforms are not applied
