| <h1>WTP PMC Minutes for May 17, 2005 Conference Call</h1> |
| <h2>No procedural matters</h2> |
| <h2>Community Update [AR]</h2> |
| <ul> |
| <li>People pages up now, sorted by contribution</li> |
| </ul> |
| <h2>Decision on Flexible Project and Server Feature Request</h2> |
| Because of the need to ship in a timely manner, we have decided to postpone suggested enhancements to the |
| flexible project model/server APIs. Although these are important pieces of the WTP framework, scheduling |
| constraints and incipient change in this area in the platform itself have caused us to defer those |
| investigations until 1.1. The PMC resolved to |
| <ul> |
| <li>Maintain the current shipping schedule</li> |
| <li>Make the quality of user tools the focus of the 1.0 release</li> |
| <li>Make the framework (APIs) the focus of the 1.1 release, including finalizing the project and |
| server models</li> |
| </ul> |
| One natural fallout of this decision is that the server and project APIs must be provisional in 1.0, given |
| that they are almost certain to change for the reasons cited. WTP will document them as such (JavaDoc, |
| component.xml, release documentation) but is not currently planning on altering the packaging because of the |
| delays involved and the shortness of the remaining schedule. |
| <h2>No Architecture Group Report this week (but note that open houses begin Thursday)</h2> |
