Topics:

2) Tutorials



Topic 1: oAW Distro
----------------------------
- currently, no branded oAW distro exists
- itemis distro / Xtext distro being built by shell script
	- creates distro for all major platforms
	- components are downloaded as archives, then unarchived and  
repackacked
- idea: use / enhance itemis build script to build oAW distro
	- also including oAW Visualization / EA Adapter, etc (aka 3rd party  
components)
- 3rd party components must provide at least one of:
	- update site
	- binary archive consumable by build script
- this distro will initially be called oAW 5
- distro can be hosted on ftp.itemis.com or openarchitectureware.org
- if possible: provide aggregate update site at oaw-wg.eclipse.org

Tasks:
- Peter: check if we can use "itemis distro build script" to build oAW  
distro
- Peter: check if we can get a repo at Eclipse to store the build script
- Karsten: provide draft for featre matrix
- Dieter: check if Hudson build possible with bash script



Topic 2: Tutorials
----------------------------
- all current tutorials are out of date
- idea: create a new, all-compassing tutorial, covering not only oAW,  
but also CDO and other interesting EMP technologies
	- try to create "umbrella" story
	- various parties can contribute individual tutorials
- try to convince itemis to "sponsor" part of the tutorials by  
providing man power

Tasks:
- Markus / Peter: bring the topic to the table at the next itemis OSS  
meeting

----------------------------
End of minutes.

Cheers,
Peter
