| <p> |
| The mission of the |
| <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/mylyn">Mylyn</a> |
| project is to provide: |
| </p><ol> |
| <li>Frameworks and APIs for Eclipse-based task and Application |
| Lifecycle Management (ALM)</li> |
| <li>Exemplary tools for task-focused programming within the Eclipse |
| IDE.</li> |
| <li>Reference implementations for open source ALM tools used by the |
| Eclipse community and for open ALM |
| standards such as OSLC</li> |
| </ol> |
| |
| <p> |
| The project is structured into sub-projects, each representing an ALM category and providing common APIs for |
| specific ALM tools. The primary consumers of this project are ALM ISVs and other adopters of Eclipse ALM |
| frameworks. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Please see the |
| <a href="http://wiki.eclipse.org/Mylyn/Charter">project charter</a> |
| for more details. |

| <p><a href="#toc">Table of Contents</a></p><h2><a name="compatibility">Compatibility with Previous Releases</a></h2><div> |
| <p> |
| <strong>API Contract Compatibility:</strong> |
| Mylyn 3.5 will be backward compatible with Mylyn 3.0. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <strong>Binary (plug-in) Compatibility:</strong> |
| Mylyn 3.5 will be binary compatible with Mylyn 3.0. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <strong>Source Compatibility:</strong> |
| Mylyn 3.5 will not by be source compatible with previous versions. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <strong>Workspace Compatibility:</strong> |
| We intend to keep Mylyn 3.5 upwards workspace-compatible with all versions higher than Mylyn 2.0 unless noted. |
| This means that workspaces created with Mylyn 2.0 can be successfully opened by Mylyn 3.5 and upgraded to a 3.5 |
| workspace. |
