Remember, any committer can add an agenda item. Typically, short announcements or news items go in the "Announcements" section at the beginning. Longer items or issues requiring discussion should go in the "Other business" section at end.

Next Meeting Date: April 6, 2023 for 3.30M1 (5 weeks)
Announcements And Special Reports
- We've pivoted from our own Jetty p2 repository to one supplied by the Oomph project, as its artifacts are GPG-signed. https://ci.eclipse.org/webtools/view/webtools_CI/job/dependency-alignment will test that the Platform repository contains the Jetty and ICU4J versions we expect (and declare in our requirements). It was missing a transitive dependency that was in WWD 1.0.1 but is absent from 1.0.2, so the SimRel contribution will require changes for 2023-06.
- Migration from Bugzilla+Gerrit is coming, but no decision has been made between GitLab and GitHub for our project repositories.
- Our web site repository, on the other hand, has been moved to GitLab.
- M3 was delayed to include a BVT fix and update to Tomcat versions, but RC1 will be built for the sake of dependencies

WTP 3.29 for Eclipse 4.27 and IDE 2023-03
- Web Services has consistently failing tests. Orbit has added the Jakarta EE 8 versions of APIs that were removed in Java 11, making those usable as potential solutions.
- The update to Xerces 2.12.x is causing many unresolved failures in the Source Editing XPath tests, although they mostly look like changes to how whitespace is handled in the output from the newer library version. The other functional failures have been addressed.
- SimRel FAQ and Plan
- Bugzilla naming: Put the simrel into the Version that's reported against, e.g. "3.26 (2022-06)" or "2022-06 (3.26)" since that's filled in by reporters, but keep the Target Milestone simple as before (3.29, 3.29 M1, etc.) so that bug queries don't get too convoluted.
- Schedule is for 13 weeks, 4 cycles per year:
- one week decompress and plan
- (3) three week milestones
- one week RC1, changes require Project Lead approval
- one week RC2, changes require Project Lead and PMC +1 approval
- one week quiet and release
- We meet roughly once per Milestone / RC scheduled for 1 week on the candidate build day. Declare is 5 days later with the corresponding EPP 2 days after that, and official SimRel/IDE availability one day after that. WTP 3.29 and Eclipse IDE 2022-12 release on December 7, 2022.
