[equinox-dev] [p2] UI priorities for M3

[Susan M Franklin <susan_franklin@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, everyone.  
One of the goals for M3 is to try to
define the conent/scope of our 3.4 deliverable.  So I'm trying to
balance our desire to resolve unknowns with getting current workflows more
polished.  I'm interested in the community's feedback on the current
M3 UI plan, which currently includes

- improving the install/uninstall/update
workflow by providing more info (size, time, invalid states, etc.)
- polling for software updates and notifying
the user
- improved support for browsing repos
(IU categories and filtering)
- more info in admin artifact repo views

(You can see the expanded detail at
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox_p2_User_Interface#Milestone_plan).

This is a rather aggressive plan but
still does not address some other big UI items, most notably 
- UI for rollback
- presentation of licenses

So if you have opinions on the pressing
issues and priorities in the UI, please let me know via this list, or annotating
bugs you care about, etc....

thanks,
susan
