Re: [gmf-dev] Release Review slides (draft)

Hi Richard,

Looks good, I could only see two things to comment on:

1) We will want to expand on Noteworthy New Features once M7 has passed
this week.

2) I do not think we need to include:
Architectural Issues
      GEF
            Still the potential to move GMF runtime features to GEF
(overlap)

Cheers...
Anthony

Hi,

I?ve attached a draft of our release review slides for GMF 2.0.  Below is
what Bjorn sent out regarding the requirements.  Feedback requested.

Thanks,
Rich

(1) Here's the development process page about release reviews:
http://www.eclipse.org/projects/dev_process/release-review.php

(2) Your slides (or non-slides) must be sent to emo@xxxxxxxxxxx on or
before May 30th.

(3) There are many example slide decks from previous releases (see
http://www.eclipse.org/projects/previous-release-reviews.php). Here are
some of the good ones:
      DTP 1.0
      http://www.eclipse.org/projects/slides/EclipseDataToolsPlatform_1.0ReleaseReview.pdf

      TPTP 4.3
      http://www.eclipse.org/projects/slides/Eclipse%20TPTP%204_3%20Release%20Review.pdf

      EPF 1.0
      http://www.eclipse.org/projects/slides/EPF%201.0%20Review%20v1.3.pdf
      BIRT 2.1
      http://www.eclipse.org/projects/slides/Eclipse%20BIRT%20Project%202_1%20Release%20Review%202006-05-30.pdf

(4) There is no example of the "one minute slide" because last year, for
Callisto, we allowed each project 3-4 minutes. You can see those slides in
the archive:
http://www.eclipse.org/projects/callisto-files/Callisto%20Release%20Review.pdf
 This year we're going for "one minute" highlighting - here's what I said
in the minutes: http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Europa_Minutes_2007.05.02

The Release Review is coming up on June 6th. Each project needs to have a
complete Release Review slide deck prepared by May 30th (one week in
advance) along with a single talking points slide at the front. During the
release review itself, each project will be given one short minute (with
20+ projects, that alone makes a 20 minute call) for the talking point
slide. The remaining slides will be for archival documentation and as
backups for any audience questions.

The talking point slide should cover:
      any significant new features since the last release (obviously all
      the projects are going to have lots of new features: a year's worth
      of new features, but we only have time for the top most significant
      ones)
      statement about the quality of the APIs
      any significant end-of-life issues in this release
      statement about the IP clearance and licenses in the code
statement about the diversity of the committer population
