Overall

-	Some bug fixes happening in the logging components, more options have
been added to the rack allowing re-branding by different vendors.
Model
-	The trace part of the trace model is being worked on and is hoped will
be in the code drop this week
-	There is a footprint issue that is being looked into currently
-	A few changes have been made to the test model, with regard to the user
interface. The java docs are not ready for this as yet, so it?s likely
that this will be included into next week?s drop.
UI
-	The group are working on dropping views into the existing extension
points, with regard to profiling, stats and execution flow.
-	Some of the work is dependent on the façade work
Execution
-	There was an issue with last week?s drop from this group. Kent is
looking into this
-	Kris is going on vacation for 3 weeks, and there has not been a
high-level of overlap between the person who will fill in for Kris on his
work in this group. This will be monitored.
-	There are a few more changes to be made to the execution group?s work,
plus the item missing from last week?s drop to be included this week.

members, soliciting feedback on the proposal which in summary would be
labelled in the following way:

including being invited to this call. At these levels, it is expected that

-	Level 3 would not be involved in the project management, and would not
be required to be Eclipse members

clearly their commitment to contribution

for discussion and resolution at next call
