Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Nag Note for Project Status Bugzillas

[Dave Steinberg <davidms@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi David,

Apologies for being a bit behind the ball on this, but I'm taking another pass through EMF's Galileo bugs right now. For highly decentralized projects like ours, with individual components contributing directly to Galileo, it feels a bit like a cat herding exercise (not unlike the overall experience you're enjoying, no doubt).

Anyhow, my question: there are numerous cases where some components are meeting the requirement and other aren't. How should I resolve the bug in those cases: fixed or won't fix?

Cheers,
Dave

As we come up to the end of M7, our Galileo readiness chart, at 
http://www.eclipse.org/projects/galileo_status.php 
needs much attention. 

If we went on the state of the table right now to decide who was "in" 
Galileo, based on "must do" items for this point in cycle, there would 
only be 10 of the 35 projects. 

ACTF Visualization
BIRT 
Data Tools 
Equinox 
GMF 
M2T
Platform 
Subversive 
TPTP
TmL

Congratulations to them ... but even then, those 10 still need to do some 
work for "RC1" items. 

I'm fairly sure some of these just need book-keeping ... for example, 
according to the chart, CDT has not yet declared their intent to be in 
Galileo! 

For other, non-book-keeping items, if you have not done it by M7 (and it 
was due by M7) you should mark as "won't fix" and explain why. Otherwise, 
when the Planning Council is reviewing them next week, we'll have to 
assume you not only did not do the item, but you are also not 
communicating in a cross-project, good-Eclipse-citizen fashion ... which 
is of course the fundamental "must-do" requirement of our simultaneous 
release! 

Please update the bugzillas by end-of-day Tuesday, so the Planning Council 
will have accurate data to discuss when we meet on Wednesday. 

Thank you,
