Mars Planning

• Any issues?
• Improving user experience in finding right function to install. For latest ideas, see

bug 459905 - Create a Marketplace for the simultaneous release.

• Moved "Sim Release Aggregation" to "HIPP Instance" (post M6).
• Move Git access to require Gerrit URL bug comment 422215.
• Any issues with bug 463510 - Use Java 7 in the infrastructure signing service? (Is currently Java 6).

- Primarily effects "repack" users (of which PDE batch builds is main one).

• Improved "aggregator examples/doc" (a long standing "to do" item). See The best format and process for contributing to Sim. Release.

- Can I ask for one volunteer to "edit" the document (just that new section)? Proof read, makes sure it is understandable? Not too wordy? (Before I announce to the world.)

No volunteers. Will let community review.

- When should we require and enforce "the first format"? Or, some variation of it? (Purpose is to be more "repeatable", and more useful to adopters.)

- Does any one have, or can someone create a tool to "create the right format"?

Progress on Action Items

• Improve "aggregator examples/doc". (dw -- done! With preliminary version, anyway).

New Business

• Just curious, how's the "greatfix competition"?

Next Meeting

• May 6, 2015 - Regular First Wednesday Meeting.
