| <p>The eclipse team now in the 2.0 "lockdown" process which involves |
| a sequence of freeze/test/fix passes. We welcome everyone to help us test |
| and fix eclipse in these final stages before we finish 2.0. To participate, |
| you need to track to the same schedule we do, test when we do, and get |
| your <a href="http://dev.eclipse.org/bugs/">bugs</a> logged in time for |
| them to be considered before the next freeze. It is critical that we all |
| test at the same time. At each freeze the "bar" is raised on |
| what is allowed to be changed, so windows of opportunity for fixing problems |
| are narrow. It is virtually impossible to track exactly to a plan this |
| detailed, so <i>we will update this schedule continuously to indicate |
| current status, and what we are testing.</i> Be warned - this plan *will* |
| change - check back frequently if you are participating with us. Bug reports |
| to <a href="http://dev.eclipse.org/bugs/">bugzilla</a>. Process comments |
| should be flagged on <a href="http://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/eclipse-dev">eclipse-dev</a>.</p> |

| is to have freeze candidate build available within 24 hours of freeze. |
| Getting a good, testable build may require multiple attempts in rapid |
| succession. Although we may have a build, it will not be declared "the" |
| freeze until the team validates the build and declares it good for testing. |
| We will keep respinning the build until freeze can be declared. It is |
| critical that we have enough time to do test passes. We will slide schedule |
| and use weekends as necessary if there are delays of more than 24 hours |
| in getting good freezes.</p> |

| <p><b>Test</b> - After a freeze is declared, the full test pass begins on |
| the freeze build. Each full test pass lasts 3 days. Each component team |
| must have a test plan to ensure adequate coverage of function and platforms |
| and to ensure everyone knows what to do. Each team is expected to have |
| at least 75% of the team testing during every test pass. The rest of the |
| team will be triaging bugs, preparing candidate fixes for critical problems |
| coming in, or working on documentation. <i>Everyone is encouraged to participate |
| in test passes and log bug reports to <a href="http://dev.eclipse.org/bugs/">bugzilla</a>! |
| </i> If you uncover what you believe could be a serious or stop-ship problem, |
| or a regression from a previous build, please make this very clear in |
| the bug report. </p> |

| <p><b>Fix</b> - At each successive freeze, the rules for what changes are |
| allowed to the codebase, and what checks are required, become more restrictive. |
| NOTE: The rules apply to both fixes and feature work - any changes to |
| the code. All committers for a component have the right to veto a change |
| (with an explanation) even after it has been released into the codebase. |
| If such a veto occurs, the change automatically comes out unless the explanation |
| is shown to be invalid or the vetoing committer's concerns are addressed. |
| An Architecture Team member who approves work, or a Committer who checks |
| a change and does not veto it, takes joint responsibility for the change |
| with the Committer who releases it, and is implicitly agreeing to personally |
| help fix any problem caused by the change. Any Committer for any Eclipse |
| Project component can perform the checking duties.</p> |
