Hi Platform UI committers and contributors,
We have shipped Luna that was a great release in my opinion. We definitely
made a major progress in order to make Eclipse based on the E4 technology
better. However there is still plenty of room for improvement.
In Mars we would like to plan each incoming milestone separately in order
to better follow the Agile practices. The planning of each new milestone
will be done during our bi-weekly meeting that takes place before
beginning of the milestone. During the planning we will select the bugs
for the milestone from our 4.5 priority list -
https://wiki.eclipse.org/Platform_UI/Plan/4.5/Planning_Bugs. The list will
be updated during the release in order to better reflect the state of Mars
Additionally we would like gather together committers and contributtors
that want to work on the priority list of Mars together with us and build
in this way the team called Distributed Development Team.
The members of the team will really try to deliver the bugs they signed up
during our planning, participate in the milestone week by testing, fixing
and providing the N&N entries where applicable.
All members of the team will be listed on the following WIKI page what
will increase significantly their visibility in the project -
https://wiki.eclipse.org/Platform_UI/Plan/4.5/Milestones
Hence I would like to invite you for achieving our plan of the 4.5 release
together as members of the Distributed Development Team
In order to join the DDT you can send me proper note by e-mail, join our
planning meeting and select the bugs for the new milestone or send me the
bugs you want to take via e-mail. You can join us anytime during the
release and you can also drop off after completing your milestone. The DDT
will have a dynamic nature and it can change from milestone to milestone.
I'm going to send proper planning invitations earlier, so you can start to
think about the incoming planning and eventually about joining the DDT in
the new milestone
If you find the DDT idea interesting, feel free to join us. We are waiting
for you. Of course patches that don't follow the 4.5 release plan as well
as all other forms of your activity are also welcome as usual.
thanks,
Daniel
