- Project Plan: Development Resources/Project Plan Status

- Bjorn's tooling renders it to PHP - bottom has a link for raw XML
- Everybody can edit the plan at any time to fix typos etc
- Due to bugzilla queries it's a very live document anyways
- How to separate "plan" kind of bugs from "normal work uninteresting" bugs
- Late API Changes / Additions
- Must decide how we want to handle Apidoc bugs
- Take the time now to review and improve unclear API descriptions
- All open API bugs
- bug 234215 bug 234030: AbstractSystemViewElementAdapter#doDelete*(): Treat Exception same as SystemMessageException? Treat "cancelled" same as Exception?

Steps Towards Ganymede
- DSDP/TM/3.0 Ramp down Plan for Ganymede
- We have RC2, so from now on EVERY checkin must get a +1 by a reviewer BEFORE (except emergencies, documentation-only or unittest-only things). Also applies to "incubation". Rules do not apply to TCF
- Please do NOT only ask me for reviewing, it doesn't scale
- TM 3.0 RC2 Testing Status
- Committers step up with good example to draw community members to it!
- Somebody must test our integration with the JEE EPP Package
- Bug Triage
- AI Everyone must review your assigned bugs and move to 3.0.1 where possible
- All "3.0" assigned bugs must be triaged now and either assigned a proper RC milestone or 3.0.1 (with the exception of Documentation-only fixes)
- Work on remaining ones by priority
- Open RC2 Assigned bugs, open 3.0 Assigned bugs
- Martin's new Build System for Dave
- In the works
- New and Noteworthy
- I'll need a list of new features for a New&Noteworthy, and for the Release Review. Release Review material is due next week.
- See CDT/User/NewIn50 for example; for TM, I put most news into our Build Notes already, so it should be possible to compile the N&N out of the build notes
- For the N&N, please make screenshots and work on "your" new features, e.g.
- Useractions
- Hi-priority-bugs
- Severity Major, Hi-Priority
- Current Statistics: 1 blocker (Martin), 1 critical (Martin), 10 major (DaveD, DaveM, Kevin, Martin, Michael), 20 other P2's
- Please fix the known hi-priority bugs as soon as possible -- best before the coordinated testing on RC2, to ensure we get good test coverage
- Community contributions: Only few unapplied patches right now, should apply now if possible (see also the Bug Process Page for a query)
- Cleanup Work
- Besides the hi-priority issues, there is a LOT of cleanup to do:
- Unittests, unittests, unittests!
- New releng scripts on dsdp.eclipse.org (Martin: must-have before his vacation)
- Copyright Year Updates (Run the releng Copyrights Tool)
- API Tooling Javadocs(@noextend and friends) - bug 227368, bug 225529 comment 4 and bug 225529 comment 6 - DSDP/TM/Code Ownership
- Review and improve Userdocs; we have several open bugs here
- Review and improve Javadocs; lots still missing
- Fix broken hyperlinks in the docs, fix HTML/XML errors (which can make the indexer not work)
- Get rid of compiler warnings wherever possible
- Add more Unittests -- ideally write an accompanying unittest for every bugfix
- Run Findbugs -- Update site on http://findbugs.cs.umd.edu/eclipse, Quickdocs by Rado in tm-dev E-Mail
- Question about filtering false positives posted on fb-discuss link
- TM Website: revamp should really be complete for Ganymede! Kevin and Martin won't have time. DaveD will try to get to it, but cannot promise.
- Besides the hi-priority issues, there is a LOT of cleanup to do:
What will happen after Ganymede?
- Going for 3.1 next year? Create a bugzilla target milestone?
- TM Future Planning Wiki for collecting ideas
- Connection Grouping - be Multicore aware
- Rewrite the Tableview to be really aware of Properties
- More dynamic subsystem enablement and configuration (e.g. detect UNIX vs Windows automatically at runtime)
- Hi-Performance, caching EFS provider
- Bring TCF to Maturity
- Quality: Add unittest coverage, reduce bloat, improve performance, streamline APIs
- Java1.4 on the Server, Java5 on the Client
Questions
- DaveD context menu on SystemView / TeamView: something going on with the way how items are being added. Bringing up the context menu immediately after startup shows some debugger related stuff. Martin: bug 208062

- Bugzilla:

- Remember our 2-fix-per-week / 3 unittests-per-milestone plan
- Since our DSDP/TM/Face-to-face Meeting Toronto 17-Sep-2007 it's now 31 weeks / 5 milestones, so each committer is due 62 fixes / 10 unittests
