<h3>Quality: Neil Hauge</h3>
<dl>
<dt>Notes:</dt>
<dd>Neil investigating "close old bugs" policy.</dd>
<dd>Neil has estimated approximately 800 bugs (of 2000 untargeted bugs) could be considered "old bugs". He'll
prepare a table and note to send to project with encouragement to PLs to handle ... something like either triage
individually and assign a target, or mark with 'helpwanted' or mark in mass with a kind comment to re-open if still
an issue (with reason for the mass update, etc.).</dd>

<h3>WTP User Experience Lead: Kaloyan Raev</h3>
<ul>
<li>FYI: XSL team doing walktrough this Wednesday (23rd)
<p>For info and notes of meeting, see <a href="http://wiki.eclipse.org/XSL_Tools_UI_Preferences_Review">XSL
Tools UI Preference Review</a></p>
</li>
<li>Investigating OpenEJB container (from Apache) for quick/easy out of the box testing, etc.</li>
<li>Kaloyan, on behalf of PMC, will encourage all Project Leads to do a UI walkthrough. Some quick
brainstorming ideas we though of were:
<ul>
<li>Webservices: many WS wizards use non-standard wizard UI/graphics (is this "cool", or is this
distracting)?</li>
<li>New Projects/Facets: once again</li>
<li>Server tools, such as:<br />
Consistent Installable runtimes (make api? suggest common approach in Eclipse, such as for datatools, for
consistent user experience)<br />
Server runtimes "effects" many places or properties, such as classpath, module dependancies, project build path.
So, are there simpler ways? more consistent ways to set/modify these values?</li>
<li>JPA: details view vs. property's view vs. outline view. Neil was quick to point out "they were first"
