Thanks,

When I sent this note out last week, I meant our next regularly
scheduled meeting which is next Wednesday.
Having said that, if you're available and keen to chat to day, let
us know and I'll make it happen.

spent a lonely five minutes waiting for the call to start...
Let's defer until next week. I'll send out a meeting notice.

The Eclipse Foundation has engaged with UX experts to review
the initial user experience with Eclipse. This includes the
website, download, and installation process. Ideally, we'd
like to look at the Welcome page as well, but I'm pretty sure
that we don't have the resources right now to actually
implement any changes.
Pascal is working on code changes and tests to various parts
of Eclipse (p2, launcher, tycho) including changing the Mac
layout and packaging as a .dmg file. It would be great if
Pascal can elaborate on the call.
I need to engage the UX experts on the Oomph Installer. At
this point, I don't believe that there have been any
significant changes in Oomph. I am concerned that some of the
the project descriptions (e.g. targets) have gotten stale.
Keeping these up to date is a challenge that we need to
address.
The "profiles" work that we've been investigating is an
extension to the Oomph notion of packages and configurations.
A profile is a higher level concept that combines the package
definition with the workspace configuration. The idea is to
make it possible for users to snapshot and share their
profiles. This also includes the ability to capture and share
preferences. I'm not happy with the term "profile" as it
suggests personal information (e.g. Facebook profile), but we
haven't come up with an alternative. We've decided to defer
profiles, as there just isn't enough time for Mars.
Buildship (Gradle) CQs have been created and we're waiting on
project code. I have expected that "any day now" for about two
weeks. I remain cautiously optimistic that we'll see the code
soon and get builds into Mars shortly.
Other ongoing work.
Thanks,
Wayne
