Re: [eclipse-dev] Planning Meeting Notes - Dec 17, 2003

[Jean-Michel Lemieux <Jean-Michel_Lemieux@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Team/CVS
- Added keypair generation (RSA version 2, and DSA) to SSH2 plug-in
- Testing and integrating changes for SSH2 plugin.
- Working on synchronize API improvements to address the following:
i) Ability to extend and embed synchronization viewers anywhere, this 
would allow improvements to 
many operations that expect the user to complete the operation in the sync 
view. Instead clients can 
create their UIs (e.g wizards or dialogs) that contain the synchronization 
GUIs and allow the user to
complete the task all in one place.
ii) Fixing usability enhancements with synchronize view (e.g. empty view 
syndrome when filter applied, 
finding out what has changed on a refresh with remote, showing that a 
background refresh is running,
showing the roots of a synchronize participant (e.g. the resources it is 
synchronizing)
iii) Fixing the empty view syndrome. Switching to the Synchronize 
perspective and everything is empty, the user
can't easily find out how to get started. One solution is to have the 
synchronize view show a start page with the
registered synchronization types and have a way of populating their 
workspace from there.
- Working on porting the target management plugins to align with the new 
Team 3.0 features (e.g. synchronize view API).
- Bug fixing for M6 and testing
