I'm dumbfounded. I can't fathom why Dani, Matthias, and Martin are
not already on the AC.
Alexander was nominated and received overwhelming support for
appointment, but it looks like the last bit of follow up never
happened. I've given that a kick.
Pascal has previously been on the AC as a member company
representative, and I swear that we had started the nomination
process for him to be appointed last year, but don't see it in the
archive.
Max is listed as a mentor for Andmore. This oversight is
completely my fault; normally I check this sort of thing, but must
have just assumed he was a member. So I'll add him to my "I'm
dumbfounded" list.
It's high-time to nominate Lars as well.
If there is no objection, I'd like to nominate you all for
appointment to the AC.
Appointment to the AC is a recognition that you've been a pretty
big deal to the Eclipse Community. In practical terms, this will
put you the AC mailing list and invite you to join the monthly
calls. This will also give you the ability to volunteer to mentor
new projects, though there is no specific requirement to do so.
If you'd rather not join the AC, please let me know either via
this list or private email before May 14.
The nomination process starts by bringing up the nomination on the
call. If there is consensus, we initiate a public discussion on
the mailing list; the the results of that public discussion are
sent to Mike with a recommendation to appoint. I'm pretty sure
that he's equally dumbfounded that you're not all already members.

The Eclipse Foundation has engaged with UX experts
to review the initial user experience with Eclipse.
This includes the website, download, and
installation process. Ideally, we'd like to look at
the Welcome page as well, but I'm pretty sure that
we don't have the resources right now to actually
implement any changes.
Pascal is working on code changes and tests to
various parts of Eclipse (p2, launcher, tycho)
including changing the Mac layout and packaging as a
.dmg file. It would be great if Pascal can elaborate
on the call.
We've the UX experts on the Oomph Installer. Eike
and--with help from Yatta--put some serious UX work
into the installer. Eike presented it to the UX
folks last week. I am concerned that some of the the
project descriptions (e.g. targets) in the Oomph
repository have gotten stale. Keeping these up to
date is a challenge that we (collectively) need to
address.
The "profiles" work that we've been investigating is
an extension to the Oomph notion of packages and
configurations. A profile is a higher level concept
that combines the package definition with the
workspace configuration. The idea is to make it
possible for users to snapshot and share their
profiles. This also includes the ability to capture
and share preferences. I'm not happy with the term
"profile" as it suggests personal information (e.g.
Facebook profile), but we haven't come up with an
alternative. We've decided to defer profiles, as
there just isn't enough time for Mars.
Buildship (Gradle) CQs have been created and we have
code. The Planning Council has rejected their
inclusion in Mars. We've engaged to Tools PMC to
attempt an appeal. Any ideas you might have are
welcome.
I'd like to talk a bit about the composition of the
"Eclipse Project" Marketplace.
