Re: [eclipse-dev] Planning Meeting Notes - Oct 6, 2004

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

Team/CVS
- adding support for latest stable CVSNT server.
- ported the CVS console to use the new o.e.console.ui console factory. 
Allows opening/closing the 
  CVS console directly from the console view instead of going to the 
preference pages. CVS Console supports
  wrapping and buffer limits.
- investigating operation/refactoring participation for logical models
- moving CVS commit sets into the Team plug-in so that other Repository 
Providers can use then. They
  will be renamed to "Change Sets".
- working on improving error status for background jobs: they currently 
pollute the log and interrupt the 
  users workflow.

Cheers,
Jean-Michel
