[gmf-dev] GMF-Tooling in Juno -- can we plan for 3.0 (major) release this year

Hello, 

While we are waiting for a release review for GMF-T 2.4, I would invite everyone to put efforts into the planning for next release.

I am glad to confirm that for this year we have got a sponsorship from Avaloq Evolution AG, which is willing to support team of 3 developers working specifically on GMF-Tooling. 
I am creating the draft proposal of the project plan now, will commit it shortly and post the main proposed topics here for discussion. 

However, it is already clear for me that in order to deliver the new features we need Juno release to be a major one, thus 3.0 instead of 2.x. 
The reason is, we will have to change models significantly, and we will not be able to provide automatic backward compatibility with the models created for 2.4.x 
(we will of course follow the transition procedure from the past of GMF-T and will develop 'Migrate Model' actions to support migration of existing models). 

Anthony, could you please approve upgrading the version of GMF-T to 3.0 for the Juno release? 

Also I am not sure how we can add into the Bugzilla the new set of milestones (no matter whether it is 3.0 M2, M3... or 2.5 M2, M3...). 
If someone know how to do that please advice me, it would help with pushing the project plan proposal into Bugzilla.

Regards, 
Michael
