| 3.0 release of the ATL project, of the Eclipse M2M Project. |
| </div><h2><a name="release_deliverables">Release Deliverables</a></h2><p> |
| The release deliverables have the same form as is found in most |
| Eclipse projects, namely: |
| <ul> |
| <li>ATL source code release, available as versions tagged |
| "R3_0" in the project's CVS repository.</li> |
| <li>M2M ATL SDK (includes runtime and tooling components, |
| with sources and documentation) (downloadable and update site). |
| </li> |
| <li>M2M ATL runtime binary distribution (downloadable and |
| update site).</li> |
| <li>M2M ATL examples (downloadable and update site). |
| </li> |
| <li>M2T ATL tests (downloadable and update site).</li> |
| </ul> |
| </p><p><a href="#toc">Table of Contents</a></p><h2><a name="release_milestones">Release Milestones</a></h2><p>Release milestones occur at roughly 6 week intervals |
| and follow the Platform release milestone by the Galileo-established |
| +2 delta interval. |
| ATL will synchronize its release milestones with |
| the |
| Galileo release schedule until the M4 date. |

| ATL produce maintenance releases to align with the Ganymede |
| Service |
| Releases |
| which includes the Eclipse Platform's 3.4.1 |
| and 3.4.2 |
| releases. Maintenance releases will only be published if they |
| contain new fixes. |
| </div><p><a href="#toc">Table of Contents</a></p><h2><a name="target_environments">Target Environments</a></h2><div> |
| In order to remain current, each Eclipse release targets |
| reasonably |
| current versions of the underlying operating environments. |
| The ATL |
| project depends upon on the Platform and other projects, which |
| are |
| mostly "pure" Java. The 3.5 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. ATL will target the same Java version |
| as the platform. |
| </div><h3>Internationalization</h3> |
| <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 ATL 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. |
| </div> |
| <p><a href="#toc">Table of Contents</a></p><h2><a name="compatibility">Compatibility with Previous Releases</a></h2><div>We plan to change the API in the ATL 3.0 release but the |
| ATL language compatibility will be preserved.</div><p><a href="#toc">Table of Contents</a></p><h2><a name="themes_and_priorities">Themes and Priorities</a></h2><h3>ATL 3.0 new features</h3><div> |
| Here is a list of the features we plan to integrate into the ATL |
| 3.0 release. |
