Here are notes from yesterday’s
meeting. Action items are in red.
DSDP marketing
activities – Doug
I am working on press communications
for June to update folks on the current state of DSDP projects and where to get
code. See below for action items on individual project communications.
Release Plans, IP
Due Diligence
MTJ
-
IBM contribution is approved
-
Nokia and EclipseME – not yet
approved
-
Still planning a release a June, but
there is high risk on this date. Need approval in 2 weeks in order to
hold to the June date. Sourceforge is another option, but not very
desirable. The EclipseME stuff will likely not finish, so MTJ will have
to pursue other options.
-
AI: Mika will following up
with Nokia on talking to the Press
-
AI: Press script on your
release plans and features
NAB
-
Due Diligence approved
-
AI: Initial commits next
week.
-
AI: Update website
-
Articles for “Eclipse
Magazine” in Japan
– print magazine only. Will have a DSDP special issue is in
July. Will write based on Doug’s ESC article. Article is due
at end of May, so Shigeki will need press scripts from all projects.
-
AI: Press script of your
release plans
-
NAB also supports other languages
besides C++: perl, python, Java. Shigeki would also like to release
the Java version.
-
Future discussion: how does NAB work
with eRCP?
TM
-
Due Diligence approved.
-
Releasing in September, but there
will be useful technology available in June. RSE, update site, secure
shell.
-
AI: Press script on your
release plans and features (simplified version of project plan). Will
be similar to getting started update on website.
DD
-
Due Diligence approved.
Current prototyping work will not fall under Due Diligence requirements because
it is new work from committers.

AI: Press script on
release plans
Community building
MTJ
-
Craig is participating, but is not currently
a committer. Contributing some code to MTJ, but will continue EclipseME for
a while until MTJ gains in popularity.
-
Mika is working with IBM on future
contributions
NAB
-
Talking to some companies about
contributing now. No new companies yet.
AI: Doug
to find out about incubation exit steps. Everyone should read the Release
Review steps.
Open question: Does 1.0 version =
incubation exit = release review? Martin comments that if this process
takes a while and is hard, we should really work on building the committer
community now.
Council meetings in
Chicago
Mika and Doug are going.
AI:
Doug to send agenda around for comments and anything the subprojects want
covered.
