| [epf-dev] Iteration C2 assessment and T1 planning - notes |
| Assessment target | C2 Iteration |
| Assessment date | 7/30/08 |
| Participants | Ricardo Balduino, Felix de Onandia,
Bruce MacIsaac, Ken Clyne, and Mark Dickson.
[Nate Oster, Kim Werner, and Chris Sibbald are on vacation (back on mid August) Ana Pereira had a schedule conflict and wasn't able to join.] |
| Project status | Yellow – we have 40 bugs in new/assigned state |
Architecture practice – 4 bugs are unresolved. Two are trivial. Three will be addressed by Mark and 1 by another contributor.
PM practices – 9 bugs left. Ricardo and Ana will address those bugs, but extra help is always welcome.
Other practice owners weren't available to report status.
Other concerns and deviations
We need to motivate people to finish an amount of bugs per week on the next 3 weeks otherwise we won’t finish all planned work on this release.
Felix will send note asking each content author what is realistic about finishing their bugs by the release date. If they can’t do it, we will have to find a contingency plan (other volunteers? drop features?). Each person gives estimate on how much time they need to finish. Each person shows plan to complete bugs. If not feasible, we can try allocating bugs to other people.
We should freeze content one week before release. Freeze on 15th and do test until 17th. From 18th through 20th, we will do fixing and polishing of the content.
In two weeks all bugzillas should be at least in resolved state.
Nate and Kim are out until 15th, who can take their bugs over? – ask Jim and Dan about contingency plan. If there isn't one, ask epf-dev for help.
Only 2 practice owners (thanks Mark and Ana) sent list of contributors on their practices. We need this from everyone so we can pass the Eclipse Release Review. This material needs to be in place one month before the release, so we are clearly running short on time.
