| <introduction> |
| <html:div> |
| This document lays out the feature and API set for the 0.9.0 release of the EMFT Ecore Tools component. |
| This project plan inherits from the Modeling Project Plan, which should be referenced when consulting this individual project plan. |
| </html:div> |
| </introduction> |
| <release_deliverables> |
| <html:div> |
| The release deliverables have the same form as is found in most Eclipse projects, namely: |
| <html:ul> |
| <html:li>EMFT Ecore Tools source code release, available as versions tagged with "R0_9" in the project's CVS repository.</html:li> |
| <html:li>EMFT Ecore Tools SDK, which includes runtime, sources, examples, and documentation, and is available as a download or on the update site.</html:li> |
| <html:li>EMFT Ecore Tools binary distribution, available as a download or on the update site.</html:li> |
| <html:li>EMFT Ecore Tools tests available as a download.</html:li> |
| </html:ul> |
| </html:div> |
| </release_deliverables> |
| <release_milestones> |
| <preamble> |
| <html:div> |
| Release milestones occur at roughly 6 week intervals and follow the Platform release milestone by the Galileo-established +3 delta interval. |
| The final EMFT Ecore Tools 0.9 release will available simultaneously with the 3.5 release of the Platform and all the other Galileo projects. |

| EMFT Ecore Tools will produce maintenance releases to align with the Ganymede Service Releases which includes the Eclipse Platform's 3.4.1 and 3.4.2 releases. |
| EMFT Ecore Tools may produce additional interim maintenance releases. |
| Maintenance releases will only be published if they contain new fixes. |
| <html:ul> |
| <html:li>Friday, February 28, 2009 - EMFT Ecore Tools 0.8.1 maintenance release for Ganymede Service Release 2.</html:li> |
| <html:li>Version numbers are subject to change should there be be any additional maintenance releases. |
| A list of the issues addressed for the 0.8.x maintenance stream are available in the Release notes : <html:a href="http://www.eclipse.org/modeling/emft/news/relnotes.php?project=ecoretools">0.8.x release notes</html:a>. |

| <target_environments> |
| <html:div> |
| In order to remain current, each Eclipse release targets reasonably current versions of the underlying operating environments. |
| The EMFT Ecore Tools project depends upon on the Platform, which is mostly "pure" Java<html:sup>TM</html:sup>. The 3.5 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. |
| EMFT Ecore Tools rely on EMF Core which is written and compiled against version 1.5 of the Java Platform APIs., EMFT Ecore Tools relies on Java 5. |
| Eclipse Platform SDK 3.5 will be tested and validated on a number of reference platforms. |
| EMFT Ecore Tools will be tested and validated against a subset of those listed for the platform. |
| <html:br/> |
| Given that there is no operating system dependent code in EMFT Ecore Tools, it's expected that EMFT Ecore Tools will work anywhere the Eclipse Platform does. |
| </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. |
| Similarly, the EMFT Ecore Tools project will externalize all its user interface elements, provide English strings for them in its default bundles, and localize a subset of the locales offered by the Platform. |
| The download page will provide the details as they become available. |
| </html:div> |
| </internationalization> |
| </target_environments> |
| <compatibility_with_previous_releases> |
| <html:div> |
| Compatibility of Release 0.9.0: the EMFT Ecore Tools project will be developed in parallel, and released simultaneously, with the following project: |
| <html:ul> |
| <html:li>Eclipse Platform SDK version 3.5</html:li> |
| <html:li>EMF Core 2.5</html:li> |
| <html:li>EMF Query 1.3</html:li> |
| <html:li>EMF Transaction 1.3</html:li> |
| <html:li>EMF Validation 1.3</html:li> |
| <html:li>MDT OCL 1.3</html:li> |
| <html:li>GEF 3.5</html:li> |
| <html:li>GMF 2.2</html:li> |
| </html:ul> |
| Each milestone version of the EMFT Ecore Tools project will be compatible with the corresponding milestone for this project and will be delivered within the appropriate time offset. |
| <html:br/> |
| The ultimate EMFT Ecore Tools release will be compatible with the released version of its dependencies and will publish binary and source compatibilities with migration guides on subsequent releases. |
