RE: [dsdp-mtj-dev] Latest Changes

Kevin, there are no attacks on my side, I'm only givin answers to your questions.
In my answers, I'm refering on the past development and also on that what process has been agreed and used.
 
It would be nice that there could be also some real contribution to the active tasks, than having a lot of other discussion e.g. about processes in generally.
 
For me the professional way is to concentrate to the active tasks and priorize the work so that the end solution does have some content.
 
This does not mean that I do disagree about to improve some processes, but it means the there has to be a proper time for that discussion.
E.g. I would expect that we all are enough experienced developers that we would take the process issues to the next release plan.
 
Concernig to the task and bugzilla entries, I did talk to Mika and Rauno and they have not done any bugzilla agreenments about the release plan tasks.
I have discussed about that but no ageed on to cange the curren tway of development.
Still the re are bugzilla entries, whicg do describe some of the major developmet tasks, e.g. https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=189849

Arto,

The problem is that this has never worked well, and you have not listened.  At this point you are frustrated, and have decided this is a personal vendetta against you.  You need to do what is right, and return to a professional stance instead of a personal one.  We realize your time has been constrained, but your actions are unwarranted.  I  will leave your attacks to stand on their own.

Yes, I agree.

Currently there are defined tasks which we are working on.
When reporting with bugzilla entry that what we have done, it should be enough.

The issue that if there is not enough bugzilla entries to all tasks, btw. has that
been agreed earlier on any of our telcos. Allthough this goes to Rauno & Mika.  

Kind a thing that there are several things tha how we do differ from some standard
Eclipse project and as a question that in what terms we do see what are the standards
for a Eclipse project. How do we differ from that, should there be changes and if so , why.

If now we have worked so long and this working way has been able to produce results,
it's quite difficult to make changes to this just before the summer & autumns release plan.
I would understand this more in the projects earlier stage, where there are a lot of tasks
to do.
This way using bugzilla would be nice to take in use in the next development cycle.
