| href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=222531">bug 222531</a></li> |

| </ul> |
| <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> |
| <dl> |
| <dt>Notes:</dt> |
| <dd> |
| <ul> |
| <li>No obvious resouce solutions.</li> |
| <li>Needs some JSF features, at least for build</li> |
| </ul> |
| </dd> |
| </dl> |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
