<h2>Announcements and General Business</h2>
<ul>


	<li>Any news on OSGi EE Tools Proposal?
	<p style="font-style: italic;"><a

	Discussion</a></p>

	</li>
	<li>Discuss <a
		href="http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/wtp-pmc/msg01728.html">proposed
	Vex move</a>
	<p style="font-style: italic;">We discussed pros and cons. Actually
	had a hard time thinking of any "cons". Only ones mentioned that came
	close was that the move could result in less then ideal integration
	with xml/sse fromwork. It might lesson the need or viability of an "xml
	project" thats been discussed at times ... by setting an example of xml
	going where its used, instead of a central technology point. Might
	inhibit Vex from expanding out into new areas where a visual xml editor
	would be useful (and instead focus on only the documentation use
	cases). But none of those seemed very large or likely, at least not to
	out weigh the advantages that were anticipated: closer to like-minded
	developers and end-users. Especially since there were no other
	dependencies on it within WTP or (as far as we know) adopters of WTP
	[after all, it has been incubating] so any new uses/dependencies, etc.,
	could be worked out as well in one project vs. the other. In other
	words, move request approved. Compliments to Dave and others for
	thinking of it and taking a constructive, proactive, positive approach
	to improving Eclipse.</p>
	</li>


	<li style="font-style: italic;">JAXRS Tooling?
	<p style="font-style: italic;">Neil mentioned an unanswered
	newsgroup/forum/mailing list post. We agreed it was fine for a PMC
	member to send email to project leads, pointing out an item of interest
	that they might be interested in responding to. [DONE]</p>
	</li>
</ul>
<h3>Future Agenda items</h3>
<ul style="text-indent: 5em; font-style: italic;">

	<li>Retrospect Helios quick maintenance release. Does it mean we
	weren't ready to release? Any way to improve timing in future?</li>
	<li>Disuss our model and assignments of "PMC Roles". Do they still
	make sense?</li>


</ul>
