| <p><b>EclipseCon </b>by Lawrence</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Summary of what's going on at EclipseCon for the WTP project including the |
| project sprint, code camp, and the WTP "track"</li> |
| <li>People who want to submit ideas for the Project Sprint on Monday evening |
| should do so by the end of the week</li> |
| <li>Jochen was chosen as our press spokesperson for EclipseCon</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <p><b>WTP Day in Europe</b> by Christophe (via Bjorn)</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>There was lots of positive feedback from the ObjectWeb members about having |
| a WTP Workshop Day in 4Q2005. ObjectWeb is going to organize, support, and |
| promote this.</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <p><b>Architecture and Requirements Groups</b> by Arthur and David and Jochen</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Erich Gamma was removed from the Architecture Group. Kevin Haaland was |
| added. David will update <a href="../../pmc.html">the website list</a>.</li> |
| <li>The Requirements Group has been changed but the website not updated. Jochen |
| will update the website.</li> |
| <li>Also, the website list is not linked from the home page, so Arthur will fix |
| that.</li> |
| <li>The PMC agreed that in the future the Groups can change on their own, but |
| that the PMC needs to be informed of such changes.</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <p><b>Committers</b> by Arthur</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>We removed two inactive committers: Deniz Seçilir and Valeriy |
| Pelyushenko.</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <p><b>Roadmap</b> by Arthur and Bjorn</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>M4 is going to be the API Freeze milestone. Arthur will put his nice |
| "what API Freeze means" document on the website.</li> |
| <li>We are careful to acknowledge that we are going to violate our own |
| APIs in our R1.0 - we do not have enough time to solidify <i>all</i> the |
| APIs before our R1.0. We will distinguish between "official API" and |
| "internal non-API that is currently used as API but will change in the |
| future and cannot be relied on".</li> |
| <li>As part of this freeze, we will be putting in place a process to |
| control API changes. We anticipate that this process will consist of |
| having the Planning Group review any API changes. Arthur is going to |
| draft the process and distribute for comments. Part of the process will |
| include the kind of justification that supplicants will be required to |
| provide when requesting a variance from the freeze.</li> |
| <li>Dominique will enhance the Planning Group to accommodate this new |
| workload. He will review the membership, add people as necessary, etc.</li> |
| <li>It is very important for us to have a Roadmap document contribution |
| this week. The Roadmap will be published at EclipseCon and if we're the |
| only project with no input, that would be awkward. Arthur will draft |
| something by Wednesday.</li> |
