Planning

Be sure to read/review Eclipse Platform plan

Project Leads: See subproject plan documents under standard-project-plans\indigo\

Tip while writing Planning document: be sure to use '&' in place of merely '&' in URL queries

Initial Planning document by M2

Iterate/Review plans by M3

Final Plans by M4

Lets review Web Tools Platform Plans

Themes

improve Java EE 6 support

e4 (Eclipse 4.1) tolerance (no exploitation of non compatible function planned)

Objective is to work with both Platform 3.7 and 4.1 (with only one set of compiled code ... compiled against 3.7)

See briefest Eclipse 4.0 intro. One thing I forgot there, was a pointer to e4-dev mailing list ... that's were Eclipse 4.0 builds are currently discussed, announced (in addition to e4-only topics).

Other Candidate Themes?

Anyone interested in these? Resources available? Do they cross projects, or just enhancement to one or two?

Maven enablement support (at least make more friendly for maven users, if not direct support)
OSGi enterprise support
Any items from "top 10" list of problems to focus on. deadlocks? performance? modularity? api? test coverage?
... ?

Schedule

8/13 WTP M1

9/24 WTP M2

11/4 WTP M3

Other business

Do we need a feature patch in webtools/helios/repository for bug 321602. Is it a blocker? (in effect) Is it a regression? (since which release?)

Is a regression since Galileo ... just not noticed in Helios initial release. Starts to effect performance with as few as 3 or so projects. Will investigate.
