| [eclipse-dev] Planning Meeting Notes - Nov 12, 2008 |
------------------
Discussion Topic
------------------
Rel. Eng.:
The foundation opened 20+ bugs against platform-releng as must-dos for Galileo. In our case, they were things we already do and I closed most of them as fixed. However, I'm not sure where to assign a few of them, such as adhering to the UI Guidelines or using Babel tools to test our strings for translation. I'm not sure who these should be assigned to within the Eclipse project. Suggestions?
