April 1 - April 7, 2011: 

*Nightly (Updated on 2011-03-24)

** 2.1.3 - no new build (the last build is 2011-03-04)
** 2.2.1 - no new build (the last build is 2011-03-25)
* Testing
** 2 failures in DBWS builder tests on Oracle -- 342029
** Investigated why Glassfish 3.1 tests running very slow -- workaround is to re-install GF before we run the tests
** DBWS examples failures on WAS ND after updated to fixpak 15 -- investigation on hold
** Core LRG testing on new TimesTen DB (11.2.1.8.0) from both Linux & Windows clients - triaged
** Verified bug fixes - 337369, 337375, 337585, 341153
* Test Dev
** JAXB annotation example tests - complete and checked in.
** Sessionbean HA tests enhancements based on dev feedback - 90%
** Test infrastructure
** The DBWS examples did not run due to the local label server migration - "/ade_autofs/ade_ott_generic/" - fixed
*** Switched to Glassfish 3.1 in nightly testing from 3.0.1
*** Integration of JAXB TCK into the EclipseLink Nightly Testing, so that it can be run regularly and with all branches - in progress -  50% - is running; need some work with results reporting.
*** Write python scripts for WLS in order to use WLST command instead of WLConfig, WLServer, and WLDeploy. - 90% - in progress
*** Reinstalled 32-bit version of TimesTen on Windows2008 to triage core test issues further - complete
* This week:
** Continue with in progress test development work
** start phase II work on JAXB Annotation Examples:  incorporate changes suggested by Moxy Dev team
** Add more weaving tests to SRG
** Debug Sybase failures for 6 models in Core LRG
** EclipseLink 2.3 cert testing planning and execution, bug fixing

== Build ==

April 07, 2011:
* Milestone Releases
** none
* Next Milestone build: 2.3.0 M7, C.O.B Friday May 4  
* New Build
** Tycho/Maven for OSGi bundles
*** all bundles building. 
*** Had meeting with interested parties to discuss results
**** concensus was that it looked like moving fully to maven was desirable
**** need better understanding of testing and some of the other endcases before committing
**** adoption approach likely inremental
*** working on maven conformant model that includes testing and update site as proof of concept
  
* Rename build.xml and build.properties (260428)
** no further progress
