<introduction>
<html:div>
<html:p>
This document lays out the feature and API set for the
fifth release of the EMF Model Transaction (EMF Transaction)
Project, version 1.4.0. This project plan inherits from the Modeling
Project Plan, which should be referenced when consulting this
individual project plan.
</html:p><html:p>
The intent for this release is to drive development by community contributions.
No new features are planned by the project committers, but patches from the
community will be processed as efficiently as possible.

<release_deliverables>
<html:div>
The release deliverables have the same form as is found in most Eclipse projects, namely:
<html:ul>
<html:li>EMF Transaction source code release, available as versions tagged "R1_4" in the project's CVS repository.</html:li>
<html:li>EMF Transaction SDK (includes runtime, sources, examples, and documentation) (downloadable and update site).</html:li>
<html:li>EMF Transaction runtime binary distribution (downloadable and update site).</html:li>
<html:li>EMF Transaction tests (downloadable)</html:li>
</html:ul>
</html:div>
</release_deliverables>
<release_milestones>
<preamble>
<html:div>
Release milestone occurring at roughly 6 week intervals and follow the
Platform milestone releases by approximately 1 week; that is, until the
final 3.6 release of the Platform, upon which EMF Transaction and other projects
will release simultaneously. It is anticipated that EMF Transaction will synchronize its
milestones with the Galileo milestone schedule.

EMF Transaction will produce maintenance releases to align with the Helios SR
releases, that includes the Eclipse Platform 3.6.1 and 3.6.2 releases.
EMF Transaction may produce interim maintenance releases in addition to these in
order to satisfy clients requests. Maintenance releases will only be published
if they have any new fixes to offer.
<html:ul>
<html:li>Friday, September 24, 2010 (last Friday of September) - EMF Transaction 1.4.1 maintenance release (if necessary)</html:li>
<html:li>Friday, February 25, 2010 (last Friday of February) - EMF Transaction 1.4.2 maintenance release (if necessary)</html:li>
<html:li>A list of issues indicated for the 1.4.x maintenance stream can be found in
bugzilla, or by using links on maintenance stream build pages.</html:li>
</html:ul>
</html:div></postamble>

<target_environments>
<html:div>
In order to remain current, each Eclipse release targets reasonably
current versions of the underlying operating environments. The EMF Transaction
project depends upon on the
Platform and other projects, which are mostly "pure" Java<html:sup>TM</html:sup>. The 3.6
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. EMF Transaction
will target the same Java version as EMF Core, which currently requires
Java 5. Eclipse Platform SDK 3.6 will be tested and validated on a
number of reference platforms. EMF Transaction will be tested and validated
against a subset of those listed for the platform.
</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. As a result, the EMF Transaction
project will provide English strings in its default bundles and be
localized to a subset of those locales offered by the Platform. This
plan will be updated to indicate which locales will be provided and
the time frame for availability.
</html:div>
</internationalization>
</target_environments>
<compatibility_with_previous_releases>
<html:div>
Compatibility of Release 1.3: The EMF Transaction project
will be developed in parallel, and released simultaneously, with the
following projects. As stated above, each milestone release of the
EMF Transaction project will be compatible with the
corresponding milestones for each of these projects, and delivered the
appropriate offset.
<html:ul>
<html:li>Eclipse Platform SDK version 3.6</html:li>
<html:li>Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) version 2.6</html:li>
<html:li>Eclipse MDT OCL version 3.0</html:li>
<html:li>Eclipse MDT UML2 version 3.1</html:li>
<html:li>Eclipse EMF Query version 1.4</html:li>
<html:li>Eclipse EMF Validation version 1.4</html:li>
</html:ul>
Therefore, the EMF Transaction initial release will be
compatible with these versions and will publish binary and source
compatibilities with migration guides on subsequent releases.
