Project scrum section

• Each project answers

WTP Common Tools

• Roberto Sanchez: Snippets is a component that does not have a lot of recent activity, but has a medium size backlog and there have been recent bugs (e.g. bug 474326). Who is the person that should be reviewing proposed fixes?

JavaScript Development Tools

• JSDT features versions are bumped to 2.0 (See: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=485699). We need to run the version-checker script in order to see what else feature/plug-in versions have to be bumped because of this change and then finally decide if we want to bump WTP version to be 4.0.

• Need to add "JavaScript Development Tools Chromium/V8 Remote Debugger" features into WTP Repositories (See: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=488144)

Server Tools

• Next week: Moving to Gerrit

Web Services Tools

• Next week: Investigate 487851

Other business - Long term tracking items

  • We need more WTP participation (triaging / fixing / coordinating / watching)
  • Dashboard
