- Name that release; Indigo+1. We'll examine votes, and be sure there is a clear winner, and that the winner is not objectionable in some way we didn't think of before. Remember, once we come up with the name, it will have to be "vetted" by Ian/Mike to make sure there would be no trademark infringement, etc. (They might be able to do this "in days", before EclipseCon is over ... but not sure.) (Pascal?)
- Status, plans, and urgency of moving from CVS to GIT. Why it is required, again? (Denis, Wayne?)
- V6 of the Eclipse Road Map ... mostly here for reference. Any feedback should have already been given, I believe, if I understand the dates ... board review is next day.
- Themes and Priorities. (Again, here for reference, may be discussed at joint meeting.)
Long Term Planning discussion
EclipseCon face-to-face is good time to discuss high level, long term issues. The following items are along the lines of "brainstorming" agenda items ... please add any of your own issues you've been wanting to talk about. They can range from a thought, question, or a well developed proposal.
- Start with a reminder of our mission, purpose, goals, etc.
- How are we doing? Beside 'being on time' are we achieving the best quality that we can? By focusing our projects on items that have biggest return, for Eclipse as a whole?
- Should we have "must do" items at all? Or, are they just recommendations?
- Are the requirements about right? Too many? Too few?
- Is the release tracking checklist worthwhile? Should we do away with them? Should we make them better? More "auto fill-in" ... more "testing" results provide the data for forms, projects provide the exceptions/documentation. Who is the audience(s)? (Projects, PMCs, Planning Council, Adopters).
- Is yearly release (with two service releases) the right interval? Should they be Quarterly? Should releases be every other year? Or, every other year be a LTS releases with "off" year having less maintenance emphasis?
Next Meeting
- April 6, 2011 (our regular "first Wednesday" meeting, at Noon Easter).
