• Discussions on web/chrome/edge support happened in the meeting
  • Strong emphasis that we have to be able to handle security updates in a reasonable amount of effort, this can be done by relying on OS shipped components, or else Eclipse project (or related) will need to have a regular update.
  • The Eclipse IDE WG will take that on board and coordinate with the Eclipse project team to make sure that proposed solutions address these concerns
