We seem to have lost our focus on making this a quick turnaround release to
fix critical problems in 0.20.

I was all for this but I'm not sure that all devs bought into this at the time.

My impression is that many (most? all?) of
these late breaking problems are bugs that we introduced during this
development cycle.

That does seem to be the case. I accept some of that responsibility by
modifying the GUI to act correctly on model element delete events.
However as a result of this we found the cause of several persistence
problems.

I would like to see the next beta be our last.  This means we've got to be
100% focused on stability.

As far as additional AndroMDA stuff goes, I'm a big AndroMDA supporter, but
we can only have a limited number of #1 priorities.  We defered work on
issue 4031 which would be a substantial benefit to AndroMDA users and I
think issue 4318 is going to have to fall into the same category unless it
turns out to be an absolute show stopper (I'll investigate and update the
bug report).

Great - as I said I'm not sure how well founded my concerns are. It
needs a decision from someone familiar with that usage.

One other schedule thing - it makes most sense to me to do the SVN upgrade
at a release boundary.  Is there a reason that we have it scheduled for
partway through the next development cycle?  Can we move it to immediately
after the 0.22 release?

I think the date was set to avoid any configuration problems that may
plague our students during their last phase of work. There is only
Andreas work going to head at the moment with Michiel commiting so
that does limit the problem but I'd prefer my student remained focused
on his task rather then stop to setup and configure eclipse to get
updates through some other mechansim. Or even worse suffered downtime
should anything go wrong at the tigris end during the conversion.

Bob.
