[cdt-dev] Minutes from CDT Call

As I said at the end of the call, just when you thought nothing was happening in the CDT...
 
I figured I should send out the notes I captured. If I missed something please reply and add.
 
- M6 is scheduled for us on Monday. It's API freeze. The objective is to get plug-in developers to try their extensions out on CDT 6 after this date. We may be delayed by a week before reaching freeze, which would mean they would have to upgrade to next weeks build to do this testing.
 
- ICU4J. It's a Galileo requirement after being a should do for years. Vivian has a patch to use the ICU4J API. We are not planning on converting the message bundles at this time (too much work/no one to do it).
 
- Makefile editor/parser. A blast from the past, Alain has some work to contribute here. It includes beefing up the Makefile parser which could lead to some interesting capabilities here with scanner info.
 
- Memory view. Ted Williams has proposed a new and simpler memory view for the CDT in place of the Platform memory view. There have been a lot of usability issues reported with the Platform version and we need to get those address. There was general agreement to proceed.
 
- Refresh tab in launch. Mikhail K has a patch to provide the refresh tab for launch configurations. This will allow us to control what resources get refreshed after a launch and address scalability issues people are seeing.
 
- Rampdown policy. We'll follow the same policy we've had in the past:
    - M6 - API freeze, changes to be
    - M7/RC0 - Feature freeze, bug fixing only after this, countdown starts
    - RC2 - Publish all changes to cdt-dev list to keep everyone up to date
 
Cheers,
Doug.
