Earlier posts not getting through because
I had not re-registered with my "IBM" email account! Oh well,
I suppose learning is one of the things that first posts are all about...

Hello all,

As discussed on the last CDT conference
call in mid-May, we need to start getting our heads around what we want
to do for the next release (beyond 1.1) of the CDT. During the call I had
offered to capture IBM-Rational's thoughts on the next release and share
them with the larger community as a starting point for further discussion.


The attached file captures the capabilities
that we have talking about adding to the CDT, as well as a proposed timeframe.
My goal in putting it out here is to generate some feedback so that we
can drive it from a proposal to something that is more like a plan of record.
I welcome any and all feedback to the proposal. It currently captures the
capabilities that Rational is working towards, so if there are areas where
others are planning or would like to contribute, feel free to provide some
input. For example, one of the areas that I have left essentially blank
is Debug. If any work is being planned in that area, it would be great
to capture that information as well. In addition to contributing code (features
and fixes), we should not forget testing. Any thoughts or comments on how
we can achieve greater test coverage (both functionality and scalability)
for the CDT is especially welcome.

Have a look and let's hear what you
think. I will summarize any feedback I get on upcoming conference calls,
and hopefully within the next couple of weeks we can add to and refine
what I have started to capture and share our plans for next release content
and timeframe on the CDT web site.
