This is in relation to
It appears that a back port from Photon to the
Papyrus 3.0 maintenance stream has dependencies on Photon
(4.0) bundles… and the use of a unit test component has
results in problems for Papyrus-RT (go read bug
531432 for more information).
The result is that it is no longer possible to
build Papyrus-RT, which means that we cannot provide fixes. This
has the side effect (reported by one user thus far) that it is
no longer possible to install the Papyrus-RT development
environment by following the instructions in the wiki. This
means that currently, Papyrus-RT cannot be used as a base for
further customization, as indicated by an affected external user
(who may not be a user for long…).
This is an example of a “very bad thing” that
could easily be called a lack of “industrialness” in Papyrus
and our approach. I am hopeful that it is not worse and not a
manifestation of siloed thinking by our teams.
I do understand that, this particular problem has
been going on for some time and that it has been discussed
already. This should make finding a solution.
We now have a risk identified, let's work at
establishing governance for this risk and implement compliance
checks.
This needs to be addressed in the context of the
joint PMC-Arch efforts on delivery governance and quality.
We were lucky in that this does not seem to have
affected many users. We may not be as lucky next time…
If the Papyrus IC (and Papyrus product line) wants
to be taken seriously, it can never happen again!
I would like to invite anyone interested in
the Papyrus IC product line Delivery Governance, including the Quality Framework &
Testing to contact either the Architecture Committee lead (Rémi
Schnekenburger) or myself (for the Product Management
Committee).
