  • Jeff McAffer
    • More contributions. This might be a meta-topic but there are likely tangible steps that the current team can take to be more open to new contributions.
    • Security directions. We have new contributions for JAAS, JCA, Keystore etc. Lets talk about where this work will take us
    • Services. Prosyst has contributed several new services recently. We should review these with an eye to graduating and integrating them into the main stream.
    • PDE build. How can we make it better (incremental, easier to setup, ...) and how will the provisioning work impact build.
  • Chris Aniszczyk
    • PDE Build. How can we tool PDE Build... in terms of having an easy way to get a user started with an automated build. Similar to how PDE provides a .product file for helping build/package RCP applications, maybe we need something similar for an automated build.
    • PDE and "Components." PDE has notions of groups of plug-ins in various places... (target definitions, product files, features, etc...) does it make sense to abstract this concept out a bit so it can be reused by other places.
    • PDE and Provisioning. How will tooling for provisioning work, what happens to features and update sites?
  • Scott Lewis
    • Security: Authentication and platform login. Integration of JAAS. Extension points and services for extensibility?
    • Bundle distribution: How to allow component-level (groups of plugins, with various dependencies) be easily distributed/installed? How do (bundle) repositories (e.g. OBR, JSR-something) fit in?
    • Related to bundle distribution: How to support EF project component distribution (without features).
    • Accessing PDE programmatically: Need PDE APIs...e.g. https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=169340
