WTP 3.2
- No Build to declare this week (Planning week)
- Project Leads: please update your Portal Metadata to reflect your plan to participate in Helios Release.
- Dali already has
- Nearly everything we do is "rolled up", but this is one thing we should be project-specific on, since EMO uses for some IP Review priority, if needed. The auto-ip logs might end up using it, etc.
- Any new CQs required for new Java EE spec's? Remember "end of M5" will be deadline for all Helios CQ's to be submitted.
- Please test EPP packages (especially Java EE and JavaScript) so we can make right by M5.
- Please test and use webtools/milestones repository. Anyone using in targets, yet? Such as for unit tests? Not to mention Helios release repo, once M4 is available.
- Bugs
Schedule
- M3 11/06
- M4 12/11
- M5 01/29
- M6 03/12
- M7 04/30
- RC1 05/14 (followed by weekly RCs, if needed)
- Final WTP 3.2 build 06/10
- (06/23 Helios Release)
Note: these (and our plan dates) are on 'Friday' of the week. But, we produce and test the build on Thursday of the week, and ideally declare on Thursday. The dates in the Google Web Tools group calendar are for 'Thursdays' since that's a calendar for committers. We give ourselves the buffer to Friday, as our "public" date, that others can pick up our build, just in case a regression is found on Thursday and we have to respin and retest. [Technically, some might say, we still have till the following Tuesday or Wednesday for "Simultaneous Release" due date ... but it's hard to do much in that window, without disrupting everyone ... so we'd not use that buffer, except for the worst emergencies.]
Other business
- Ok to remove unused performance bundles? See bug 295202.
- Have heard from all but a few teams.
- we require some
quickchanges for JUnit V4
- Team Programming: who has solved the model-xml-emf-schema-network issue before? (See bug 296544).
- Team Programming: who can write a FAQ on "how to delete a project during unit tests"?
