+ <introduction>
+ <html:div>
+ <html:p>
+ This document lays out the feature and API set for the next version of the MWE (version 0.8.0).
+ This project plan inherits from the Modeling Project Plan, which should be referenced when consulting this individual project plan.
+ </html:p>
+ </html:div>
+ </introduction>
+ <release_deliverables>
+ <html:div>
+The release deliverables have the same form as is found in most Eclipse projects, namely:
+ <html:p>
+ <html:ul>
+ <html:li>EMFT MWE SDK (includes runtime and tooling components, with sources, examples, and documentation) (downloadable and update site).</html:li>
+ <html:li>EMFT MWE runtime binary distribution (downloadable and update site).</html:li>
+ <html:li>EMFT MWE tests (downloadable and update site)</html:li>
+ </html:ul>
+ </html:p>
+ </html:div>
+ </release_deliverables>
+ <release_milestones>
+ <preamble>
+ <html:div>
+ Release milestone occurring at roughly 6 week intervals and follow the Platform milestone releases by approximately 2 weeks;
+ that is, until the final 3.6 release of the Platform, upon which MWE and other projects will release simultaneously.
+ As MWE is dependent upon the EMF, and other projects, which are scheduled to release milestones within 1 week of Platform milestones,
+ MWE will deliver its milestones within the following week.
+ It is anticipated that MWE will synchronize its release milestones with the Helios release schedule.

+ <target_environments>
+ <html:div>
+In order to remain current, each Eclipse release targets reasonably current versions of the underlying operating environments.
+The MWE project depends upon on the Platform and other projects, which are mostly "pure" Java.
+The 3.6 release of the Eclipse Platform Project is written and compiled against version 1.4 of the Java Platform APIs,
+and targeted to run on version 1.4 of the Java Runtime Environment, Standard Edition.
+MWE will target the same Java version as EMF, which currently requires Java 5.
+Eclipse Platform SDK 3.6 will be tested and validated on a number of reference platforms.
+MWE will be tested and validated against a subset of those listed for the platform.
+Those available will be presented on the project download site.
+ </html:div>
+<!-- <internationalization>
+ <html:div>
+The Eclipse Platform is designed as the basis for internationalized products.
+ The user interface elements provided by the Eclipse SDK components, including dialogs and error messages, are externalized.
+ The English strings are provided as the default resource bundles.
+ As a result, the MWE project will provide English strings in its default bundles and be localized to a subset of those locales offered by the Platform.
+ This plan will be updated to indicate which locales will be provided and the time frame for availability.
+ </html:div>
+ </internationalization> -->
