[equinox-dev] moving equinox bugs

[Jeff McAffer <Jeff_McAffer@xxxxxxxxxx>]

As outlined earlier, we are moving the
Equinox bugs to the main Platform product in Bugzilla.  In particular,
to the newly created Platform Runtime component.  We want to move
all the open Equinox bugs (72 of them) to Runtime and tag them with the
appropriate [tag] in the summary field.  In general the tag will be
one of 

[osgi] = everthing related to the framework,
adaptor, Main, ...
[registry] = everything related to the
registry
[other] = other stuff like core tools
etc.

Over the course of the next couple days,
Equinox committers should look at the bugs and start moving and annotating
them accordingly.  This is also an opportunity to update the bugs
and perhaps close some that are stale.  

All new bugs should be reported to Platform
> Runtime and annotated appropriately.

Note also that going forward we want
to start being more rigorous about the bug lifecycle and use the New and
Assigned states as well as ownership to better indicate/track the state
of the bugs.  I suspect that all the bugs moved from Equinox should
end up being marked as Assigned.

People who have been listening to the
equinox-inbox user should now listen to the platform-runtime-inbox user.

On a separate but related note, people
interested in runtime developments should probably subscribe to the platform-core-dev
mailing list as that will be the home of future Eclipse OSGi/Runtime product
development discussions.  Equinox will continue to host interesting
runtime related investigation so feel free to stay tuned here...
