Reference

Notes:
We agreed, I'd send reminder that exceptions for post M6 features should have PMC Review. Project leads to open bug to track, and update the "exceptions" section of ramp down page.
I also agree to update ramp down page to make clearer that its bugs that are post M7 review, but features or large UI changes need review after M6.

Previous Notes:
  • Phase 1, orgainize what we have, done by end January.

Other business?

  • Committers in the works: Gary K and Cameron
  • Requirement Project: http://www.eclipse.org/proposals/ormf/
  • Face-to-face meeting. Sunday will be bad (most getting in too late on Sunday). Need to find some other time. Need to create an agenda.
  • Discussed version increment. Decided "3.1", unless there is major additions or something breaking. [Added after the meeting, should we consider "3.5"? (to match the platfor?)
  • Potential resource issues?
    • Refactoring Doc features (and moving to appropriate sub-projects).
    • Refactoring SDK (source and JavaDoc) features/bundles (and moving to appropriate sub-projects)
    • Platform/OS coverage for testing and support?
    • Performance Tests
    Notes:
    No obvious resouce solutions. JSF does generate "manually", and then just includes in the build.
    dw to ask hz if we should have test matrix?
