Minutes

  • Plan update
    • Everyone should send status on items on the Equinox plan to Tom.
  • 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
    • Can workaround the problem by tweaking start levels
