Mickael,
I believe this kind of direction should be given by the
planning council. What you're stating is your opinion (or a
suggestion for a change in the long established direction), but
we've already heard David's opinion on this, and it was one of
caution. Having managed release trains for years, I put a heck
of a lot of weight in David's informed opinions. So at this
point I don't feel we (you) should not be prescribing a new
solution to replace the old solution, not until the planning
council has determined and agreed that this new solution does in
fact solve enough old problems without introducing more new
problems compared to the old solution. Of course I have no
issue with discussing new approaches, but best we consider
carefully any new path we take, and best we not prescribe a
solution before its fully baked. In other words, I'm cautioning
you not to draw a final conclusion.
Right, I should have put some pre-amble to my answer: this is a
recommendation of mine, which is compliant with the current SimRel
requirements IIRC; it's not something that is to be taken as a
"solution" or a "rule".
Let's continue discussing alternatives (so the following is still
not something to be perceived as a solution neither): I also agree
with Gunnar and the point he mentions IMHO invalidates most of the
reason why including 3rd-party bundles in features can be better
than not doing it and letting p2 resolve them. We should establish a
list of pros and cons of both approaches to visualize better which
one has the most benefits and introduce the least confusion.
Cheers,
