[cosmos-dev] i6 status and i7 availability

[Jason Losh <Jason.Losh@xxxxxxx>]

Hi folks,

Sorry for the scheduling issue this morning.  The fire alarm turned out to be a false positive, fortunately, but unfortunately left most of us on the SAS side scrambling.

In any event, I do want to collect brief status updates on i6.  From last week the following bugzillas were being pursued.

281282 - Resolve ResourcePropertyType variables (Jeff H.)
281288 - Decompose operation handler into discreet operations (Josh H.)
282024 - Need to honor priority attribute for AlternateTypes and ConstraintTypes (Jeff H.)

Jeff/Josh, can you send me updates on the three bugzillas listed above.

David, please pass along any relevant information related to RM.

All, I have created an i7 feature page here http://wiki.eclipse.org/COSMOS_1.1_Iteration7_Features to track any defects or stabilizing work for 1.1.

Also, in accordance with our preparation for the 1.1 GA, I have emailed all inactive committers and requested permission from our technology PMC to release COSMOS 1.1.

I will have the IP log submitted to Eclipse legal later this week.

** Also, on an unrelated note, if you know of companies that plan to make use of COSMOS 1.1 please let me know *offline*.  These can be internal adopters from participating companies or other companies that plan to use COSMOS but are not currently participating.  The Eclipse ecosystem development team will be working on a Fall membership drive and this can be a good way to broaden our community.

Thanks & cheers,
-Jason
