[Brent D Metz <bdmetz@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Eclipse Voice Tools Development Call
Minutes

January 5, 2006, 11am EST

Attendees:

Brent D. Metz, IBM
Jeff Pedigo, SandCherry
Chris Kramp, SandCherry
Michael Greenawalt, TellMe

The call began with a discussion of
the status of the project. It was stated that the TellMe submission is
still
going through the contribution evaluation
process at the Eclipse Foundation and that a second milestone is delayed
pending proper integration of the submission.
Due to the delay of the second milestone it was noted that the release
date
of the project is very likely not going
to be at the end of January.

An update of the TellMe contribution
was given. It was stated that bug fixes have continued while the evaluation
process has been under way.

The design of the log table in the input
view was discussed. The merits and pitfalls of allowing the browser to
send log
event timestamps back as a String versus
a Java Date object were discussed. The question of internationalization
of time
was raised and one participant noted
that preferred time delimiters can vary by locale. It was agreed that the
best
solution would be to allow the user
to customize the time display via a preference page.

It was noted that the help should be
reorganized to take advantage of the extra time to finish the milestone
release while
the legal process is ongoing. Callers
were encouraged to evaluate the help and provide suggestions for improvement
or
write new sections. The need for tutorials
in the integrated help was brought up.

The daily build process was mentioned
as having issues. A caller noted that builds were previously not being
updated daily.
It was agreed that the issue would be
investigated immediately.
