Subject: [dsdp-dev] Flexible Debug Platform Development Plan for 3.2 M4

Debug Developers,

During the course of 3.2 milestone 4, the debug platform will be 
undergoing a significant overhaul in order to integrate changes for the 
following plan item (support for flexible hierarchy, pluggable update, 
asynchronous viewers, etc):

        https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=106205

Our goal is to release the new platform support to HEAD for the Nov 22 
integration build. In order to minimize impact on nightly builds, our plan 
to develop and release the new support is as follows:

* Version HEAD today (v1), and release this to the next integration build 
(Nov 8)
* Merge our prototype implementation of the flexible debug platform into 
HEAD and version it (v2)
* Start a new branch for continued development on the flexible debug 
platform
* Revert HEAD to (v1), for nightly builds and critical fixes

Main stream development of the debug  platform will be done in the branch. 
Only critical fixes will be released to HEAD, and any fixes released to 
HEAD must also be placed in the development branch, to ease future 
merging. The new branch will tentatively be named "flexible_platform".
