I am in vacation next week :-)
I'm looking forward to chatting with everybody next week.
Thanks,
Wayne

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.

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

Today, I'd like to talk about some of the separate streams of development that we have going right now.

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
