Minutes

  • Scope of the meeting: Is there a need to align “collaboration” technologies and frameworks.
    • The consensus is yes.
    • Even though each project is part of the Technology top-level project, they each operate as independent projects.
    • Collaborating on collaboration will help the projects to better align themselves within a stronger Eclipse collaboration offering.
  • Possible other projects that would be interested in collaborating on collaboration
    • Higgins, Buckminster
  • A consistent use of terminology is needed to improve the communication from Eclipse to the market.  Each project lists “collaboration” as one of its values however, “collaboration” is a broad topic.  It was decided that there is confusion in the collaboration community about the focus of each of the Eclipse collaboration projects and a unified diagram and description would be helpful.
  • Initial set of common issues were listed.  These will be addressed during follow-up conference calls.
    • Server-side environment
    • Collaboration context
    • Repository access
    • Security / Identity management
    • Communications
    • Manageability
    • Development /Build environment infrastructure
      • Consolidated release of collaboration projects.  
      • Participation in Europa release train scheduled for June 2007
  • EclipseCon
    • Suggestion to have an Eclipse “collaboration” presentation where all collaboration related projects are clearly positioned.
    • As a group, host sessions and BOFs to provide information to Eclipse community re: collaboration projects
  • Collabnet
    • Working on an Eclipse plug-in for Collabnet’s bug tracking system
  • IBM Jazz
    • How does IBM’s commercial / proprietary collaboration offering (Jazz) participate in an Eclipse collaboration solution?
    • Initial attempts to establish any relationships / contacts with Jazz have not been successful.

 

Open Issues

  • Would there be any value of having a collaboration development mailing list?  Or should developers / users continue to post messages to each project’s dev mailing list.

 

Action Items

  • [Paul Styles] Define common set of terminology to use to provide consistent communication to the market.
  • [Paul Styles] Coordinate EclipseCon presentation that presents an overview of all Eclipse collaboration projects
  • [Dennis O'Flynn] Schedule follow-up meeting to begin discussion regarding common issues / needs.

Subject: [corona-dev] Eclipse Collaboration Projects

 

 

We have recently worked with Scott Lewis (ECF Project Lead) on some common collaboration initiatives.  During this time, it became apparent to us that there are several Eclipse projects that are involved with some form of collaboration technologies / frameworks.  These projects are all part of the Technology top-level project and are currently working independent from one another.

 

Based upon information posted to each project’s website, wiki, and mailing list, it is noticeable that there are several issues that we all have in common.  In addition, there may be some technologies that each project could leverage from one another.

 

From our perspective, the projects are addressing the following collaboration areas:

  • Corona - tool collaboration
  • ECF – data collaboration
  • ALF – process collaboration
  • Mylar – task collaboration
  • Apogee – content management

 

We would like to explore any possible synergies our projects may share.  We propose that key members from Corona / ECF / ALF / Mylar / Apogee meet and discuss possible ways our projects can work together. 

 

The preliminary agenda includes:

  • Scope of collaboration
  • Concepts
  • Terminology
  • Identify common issues / needs
    • Server-side environment
    • Collaboration context
    • Security / Identity management
    • Communications
    • Manageability
  • Technology synergies

 

The meeting logistics are:

  • Date: Monday, October 16, 2006
  • Time: 11:00 AM EDT
  • Conference call: 866-213-1962 or 609-454-9912
  • Access code: 2277433

 

If you are interested in collaborating on collaboration, please post a message to corona-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx to let us know.  Share with us any additional topic items as well as your view of how Eclipse can better address collaboration technologies and frameworks.
