<p><b>Update Notes</b> <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - We recommend using the Eclipse 3.3M7 release due to the
numerous UI improvements (see Eclipse 3.3 only items below).<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - 2.0M2 and later releases will reset your task activity
timings (Mylyn now uses a new and much more robust timing mechanism).<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - The offline task data cache will be reset, so submit outgoing changes before
updating.<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - If upgrading from a 0.x version, first update to Mylyn 1.0
and see the corresponding <a href="http://eclipse.org/mylyn/doc/new-1.0.html">
update notes</a>.<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - Trac xml-rpc users: you will
<a href="http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Mylyn_FAQ#Trac_Connector">need the
latest</a> XmlRpcPlugin.<br>&nbsp;</p>
<p><b>Mylar -&gt; Mylyn Migration</b></p>
<ul>
<li>No uninstall necessary during the update, the old plug-ins will
automatically be disabled.</li>
<li>Can delete all old plug-ins/features either manually or via the Update
Manager.</li>
<li>All Mylyn preferences will need to be reset.&nbsp; If you set a custom
data directory this will need to be reset on start.</li>
<li>Project to Task Repository associations will need to be reset.</li>
</ul>
<p><b>UI Cleanup</b></p>
<p>The following things have moved into the Sandbox either because they are not
at the 2.0 quality level or because they are experimental features.</p>
<ul>
<li>Pause Context Capture</li>
<li>Active Task on open</li>
<li>Synchronize view style overlays</li>
<li>Task Activity report</li>
<li>Legend moved to view menu</li>

<p class="MsoPlainText">Mylyn now provides a unified working set
mechanism for tasks and projects.&nbsp; Using the switcher bar on the

workspace projects.&nbsp; As long as Eclipse views are set to show
the <i>Window Working Set</i> (this is the default), switching Mylyn
working sets will cause both the Task List and Eclipse views to show
only the tasks and projects&nbsp; that are part of the working set.&nbsp;
For example, if you set up a Mylyn working set and enable it with
the drop-down, the <i>Task List</i>, <i>Package Explorer</i> and <i>
Problems</i> views will only show content related to that working
set. You can also scope <i>Search</i> to only find things in the
working set.&nbsp; Selecting <i>Show All</i> in the drop-down will
ensure that you all elements as usual. <p class="MsoPlainText">

In addition to using the pull-down to switch active tasks, the

note that you can toggle background synchronizations via the <i>
Synchronize Automatically</i> button in the <i>Task List</i> view menu.&nbsp;
Opening repository tasks is now much faster due to synchronization and
offline concurrency improvements.&nbsp; Any submission errors are now
shown on the task editor header (Eclipse 3.3) instead of the <i>Error
Log</i> view.&nbsp; Also note that the <i>History</i> button is now on
the toolbar and a <i>Submit </i>buttons has been added as well.<p>

The performance of repository task opening has improved
dramatically because there are no more synchronous trips to the
server and all editor pages load lazily.&nbsp; If editor contents become stale, the
header will be updated as below (Eclipse 3.3) or a dialog will
show (Eclipse 3.2).&nbsp; The <i>Synchronize</i> button on the right
of the header retrieves the latest contents.&nbsp; The information

The <i>Context</i> tab on the Task Editor provides a preview of the
task context contents.&nbsp; This facility can be used to remove
elements and edit their interest, for example, before sharing the
context with others. When first opened this view will show all of
the elements in the task context that have a corresponding content
provider (e.g. Java elements and files). For long-running tasks this
can cause a large number of elements that have decayed in interest
to show.&nbsp; The filter slider bar can be used to adjust
degree-of-interest threshold to show only the most interesting
elements.<p>

Tasks with due dates that are not past will have a blue bell overlay

<i>File -&gt; New -&gt; Other -&gt; Mylyn -&gt; UI Usage Report</i> will
generate a report of your perspective, view, preference, command and
editor usage in Eclipse.&nbsp; This reporting facility builds on the
Mylyn Monitor used to study early releases of Mylyn and has been
extended to upload statistics to the mylyn.eclipse.org server where
they can be accessed by all interested (via the button in the <i>
Actions</i> section).&nbsp; As before, we will be using these
statistics as input to evolving and improving the Mylyn UI.&nbsp;
<p><i>UI Usage Reporting</i> is installable as a separate feature
that can be used independently of the rest of Mylyn.&nbsp; Currently
it is only available to Eclipse 3.3 users but will be made available
to 3.2 users for the next release.&nbsp; If installed it will ask to
run once every three weeks, at which point you will see statistics
displayed as below.&nbsp; We then ask that you share your usage data
with the community, via the <i>Submit to Eclipse.org</i> button, so
that it can help inform Eclipse developers how the UI is being used.&nbsp;
Note that only interaction events that have IDs starting with &quot;org.eclipse&quot;
will be uploaded in order to avoid having private ID names made
public.&nbsp; Note that the information gathered also includes
interaction information about elements, so to avoid sharing the IDs
of private elements make sure to leave on &quot;Obfuscate elements using
SHA message digest one-way hash&quot; via the <i>Preferences -&gt;
Mylyn -&gt;
Usage Data</i> page.&nbsp; More information on how the monitor works
can be found in
<a href="http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Mylyn_Integrator_Reference#Monitor_API">Eclipsepedia</a>.</p>
