Re: [wtp-dev] Reminders about 1.5.4 stream

I think that'd be fine when under deadline
(such as today!) 

And, I'll put on PMC agenda and we'll
update documented process with what we decide then ... 
(but, yes, for today assume ok to do
when under deadline).

David, 
could you remind me please if we are allowed to commit "Tentatively
Approved" bugs [1] provided we are ready to back out if a "-1"
gets cast? I seem to recall this being the case, but the approval process
[2] doesn't discuss it.

Cheers - CB.

Subject	[wtp-dev] Reminders about 1.5.4 stream

This week will be our first I-build towards 1.5.4. 

See  http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/wtp-dev/msg05082.html

So, while not much time left, if anyone has any fixes to get in early,
Wednesday is the day to do it. 

We PMC members will try an keep an eye on http://www.eclipse.org/webtools/plans/1.5.4/pmc-bug-approval.php

But, there's already been a couple of issues that have come up repeatedly:

1)  Before marking for PMC review, please be sure you have component
lead review and approval 
documented (or, their delegate). And, as always, include who's reviewed,
who's tested., etc. 

2) While we documented that appropriate bugs for 1.5.4 were "stop
ship" bugs ... to avoid distractions from 2.0 work, 
there have been some requests based on adopters "hot bug requests".
 We discussed at PMC meeting and while 
we'd like to keep any "new feature" work to a minimum (in a maintenance
release), we agreed they could be 
evaluated and handled as exceptions to the rule. I have updated the document
at 
http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/WTP_PMC_Defect_Review
to explicitly request that bugs which are not true stop ship defects to
be documented as hotbugs (if in fact, 
they are blocking adopters use of WTP for some scenarios, but not necessarily
a defect per se).
