Hello Harald,
I understand you are planning a review in September. Let me give you some
information that will help explain what you need to do for this.
Review conference calls are held twice per
month, usually on Wednesday morning at 8am Pacific time. I just checked the
September calendar, and it's going to be hard to schedule reviews in that
month due to other things on the calendar. But I think that Monday,
September 17, would be a good day. If you think that day would work for
you, I'll go ahead and make a note on the calendar right now.
In order for a review to be added to the "official" schedule that is
published on this page:
http://www.eclipse.org/projects/,
we need to have the following items in place at least one week before the
review date:
- approval from your PMC to have the review
- the final version of the review slides
- notification from the Eclipse legal department that your project has IP
clearance
Please note that IP clearance can take a bit of time, so we encourage you
to start this process as soon as possible.
After the conference call, there is a period of at least one week before
the review is declared successful. The community has an opportunity to comment
and vote on the review, and the EMO reviews the votes and comments before
approving the review. Assuming all goes well, you could release after
September 24, one week after the review conference call.
All of this is documented in detail--below are some links you might find
useful. Please let me know if you have any question. Thanks.
Also, please let me know if I should make a note on the calendar to
reserve September 17 as a review date for g-Eclipse. Thanks.
