BIRT 2.1.1 Planning
BIRT 2.1.1 continues to be tentatively planned for a September 28, 2006 release. This will be a coordinated release with a number of other Eclipse projects.
BIRT 2.1.1 is a maintenance release only, and the development team is already working on bugs that will be addressed in this release. For a list of the bugs that are already addressed in, and are scheduled for, this release, refer to Bugzilla.
Wenfeng is going to ping the cross-project planning group to see when the planning coordination calls are going to start up.
BIRT 2.2/3.0 Planning
The next BIRT major release will be BIRT 2.2 or 3.0 -- with the final feature set determining the release designation.
No change in status here. Wenfeng and Paul need to get together to come up with a planning timeline.
In the meantime, a number of projects/bugs have been tentatively assigned to this release in Bugzilla.
Project Charter Update
There have been no updates from the Eclipse Management Organization on the proposed update to the standard project charter template.
