| </h2> |
| <div> |
| <p> |
| This document lays out the feature and API set for the next version of the Xpand (version 0.8.0). |
| This project plan inherits from the Modeling Project Plan, which should be referenced when consulting this individual project plan. |
| </p> |
| </div> |
| <h2> |
| <a name="release_deliverables">Release Deliverables</a> |
| </h2> |
| <div> |
| The release deliverables have the same form as is found in most Eclipse projects, namely: |
| <p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>M2T Xpand SDK (includes runtime and tooling components, with sources, examples, and documentation) (downloadable and update site).</li> |
| <li>M2T Xpand runtime binary distribution (downloadable and update site).</li> |
| <li>M2T Xpand tests (downloadable and update site)</li> |

| <h2> |
| <a name="release_milestones">Release Milestones</a> |
| </h2> |
| <div> |
| Release milestone occurring at roughly 6 week intervals and follow the Platform milestone releases by approximately 2 weeks; |
| that is, until the final 3.6 release of the Platform, upon which Xpand and other projects will release simultaneously. |
| As Xpand is dependent upon the EMF, and other projects, which are scheduled to release milestones within 1 week of Platform milestones, |
| Xpand will deliver its milestones within the following week. |
| It is anticipated that Xpand will synchronize its release milestones with the Helios release schedule. |

| </h2> |
| <div> |
| In order to remain current, each Eclipse release targets reasonably current versions of the underlying operating environments. |
| The Xpand project depends upon on the Platform and other projects, which are mostly "pure" Java. |
| 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. |
| Xpand will target the same Java version as EMF, which currently requires Java 5. |
| Eclipse Platform SDK 3.6 will be tested and validated on a number of reference platforms. |
| Xpand will be tested and validated against a subset of those listed for the platform. |
| Those available will be presented on the project download site. |

| Compatibility of Helios Release: The Xpand project will be developed in |
| parallel, and released simultaneously, with the following projects. |
| <ul> |
| <li>Eclipse Platform SDK version 3.6</li> |
| <li>Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) version 2.6</li> |
| <li>EMFT MWE version 0.8.0</li> |

| </h2> |
| <div> |
| A list of project requirements and agreed upon implementation time frames is |
| found in this document. For the milestones listed in this document, a set of |
| overall themes is used to indicate what major set of functionalities is to be |
| concentrated on for each. These themes are presented below, while the |
| requirements document and associated Bugzilla entries are left to those wanting |
| more detailed information on each. |
| </div> |
| <h3>Usability</h3> |
| <div> |
| In the Helios release we want to focus on further improving quality of UI, API and documentation. |
| Xpand needs to be understandable, reliable and consumable. |
| </div> |
| <h3>Performance and Scalability</h3> |
| <div> |
| Performance and scalability needs to be further enhanced. |
| </div> |
| <h3>Clean Code</h3> |
| <div> |
| Keeping the quality of code high is key for long lasting software systems. |
| We want to further keep our code clean, which means doing things like removing dead code, cleaning up / rewriting code we do no longer understand, |
| avoiding redundancy, etc.. |
