     <li>We need a <b>another</b> 2.0.2 patch. (and put on update site) See <a

 <h2>General business?</h2>
 <ul>
     <li>JSF to lead the way on Exceptions to feature freeze. Need to emphasize, repeat process in Thursday's
     meeting</li>
     <li>Good feedback on EclipseCon
     <ul>
         <li>fee-less tutorials helped ... more attendees, still interested and engaged (not just lurkers "because
         it's free").</li>
         <li>absolutely should have power strips for attendees for all tutorials</li>
         <li>+/- evaluation system was good</li>
         <li>invited guests (as whole) were not as good as last year's (informal impression, as a whole)</li>
         <li>hack-a-thon -- did anyone attend?-- not well publicized</li>
         <li>webtools uncovered: good attendance. no minus ones</li>
         <li>webtools adopted: not heavily attended (could/should consolidate next year, have less time allotted</li>
     </ul>
     </li>
     <li>Potential resource issues?
     <ul>
         <li>Product plugin for EPP and welcome screen</li>
         <li>Refactoring Doc features (and moving to appropriate sub-projects).</li>
         <li>Refactoring SDK (source and JavaDoc) features/bundles (and moving to appropriate sub-projects)</li>
         <li>Platform/OS coverage for testing and support? -- probably suffices to simply record coverage. Perhaps
         ask for community help.</li>
         <li>Performance Tests -- Kayolan making some progress.</li>
     </ul>
