Assessment of SR2

Potential (near?) negative impact on adopters:

Some "late"
Modeling EMF ?CDO? missed deadline
DTP final zips late (sort of)?
Not all projects had maintenance/rebuilds (do we need to explicitly "plan" for that?)
EclipseLink (thought they wouldn't need an SR2, but after all decided they will need maintenance ... in March or so)
PDT (PHP Tools) didn't have an SR2, but saw one user on mailing list saying "he sure thought they needed one, based on important fixes in Helios ... its a long time to wait" (I've no idea if he was accurate ... just raising as an example to be aware of).
Potential for some Orbit Jars to not be consistent, if not everyone re-builds or re-packages. (one substantial one, this time, but others changed signatures).
Other?

Good things:

Maintained "old" content (SR1)
Rolled out P2 artifacts before metadata (instead of artifacts and metadata visible at same time)
Other?

Helios

I want to recommend "guidelines" that may become "required" next year (but not for Helios)
I want to recommend naming of /<project>/repository/<release>/[SRn | datetimestamp]/
where 'project' is high level project (Top level? except Tools and Technology?)
where 'release' is Yearly Release name ... only for those in yearly release.
  • Also, do we agree that projects in release train can omit feature update URL, if they would like to (since the common one is built into platform). We need less "repository locations" clutter. Risk is it would be a little harder to provide off-cycle maintenance (users would need to add project location to their list).

Cross-Project Teams

Aggregation

Planning Council/Cross Project Teams/Aggregation

Previously planned meeting didn't happen ... and after some email exchanges, nothing concrete seemed needed.


Tracking progress and compliance

Planning Council/Cross Project Teams/Tracking

Review readiness of current version on Portal

Comments? Ok to move forward? Does anyone prefer Plan B or Plan C?

Other business

  • Reminder: face-face EclipseCon meeting 2:00 to 3:00 (local time) on the Sunday before EclispeCon (3/21).
  • TODO: I need to get/send room.
  • Followed by "joint meeting" with other councils.

ToDo Items

(volunteers welcome)

  • coordinate community input for next year's name (Oliver says last year this was started "shortly before EclipseCon" ... so, no rush).
  • provide concrete instructions for (new) license-consistency requirement (John Arthorne).

Next Meeting

EclispeCon 3/21 2:00 PM Pacific Time
April 7, Wednesday, Noon Eastern Time.
