Ted - While we're on the topic of API, we'd like to see an update of the plans for the Flexible Project support. Can Chuck do that? Chuck - Yes. [action] Chuck to update the Flexible Project support plan for WTP 1.5 and beyond.[3] |

2. WTP 1.0.1 Status - Jeffrey Liu
Any stop-ship problems reported? Are we good to release WTP 1.0.1 tomorrow?
Jeffrey - All outstanding problems have been deferred to WTP 1.0.2.
Arthur - David, please promote the release candidate tomorrow.
David -OK. I need some more testing of the Update Manager site. We need testing outside of the IBM network which may be affecting the way content is mirrored. Can BEA do some testing?
TimW - Yes, but we need a few days.
3. WTP 1.5 Status
3.1) WTP 1.5 Build Status - David Williams
David - We have a candidate I-Build. We'll need to move up to the Eclipse M5a build. We also need to move up to the current versions of the other prereqs prior to release of our M5.
Arthur - Please post the schedule for moving up.
3.2) WTP 1.5 Bugzilla
Status [1] - Jeffrey Liu
Lets review (follow links on [1]):
- Unresolved P1/P2 (Excluding Hot Bugs)
- Unresolved Blocker/Critical (Exclduing Hot Bugs)
- Unresolved Hot Bugs
Jeffrey reviewed the bugs. All developers need to review their P1/P2, Blocker/Critical, and Hot Bugs for WTP 1.5.

3.3) WTP Adopter Usage/Breakage Scans [1] - Jeffrey Liu
- Which adopters have posted usage scans?
- Are we avoiding breakage?
- How are the tools working?

4. Update Manager Site
Status - David Williams
David - Use comments above We need testing from home, outside IBM, etc.
5. WTP 1.0.2 Status
- Tim Wagner
Please review the schedule. [1]
| The PMC clarified the endgame
policy w.r.t. adopter hot list additions for the 1.0.2 release today:
today – March 24th: adopters are welcome to submit *ship blocking* issues for consideration on the 1.0.2 adopter hot list March 25 – April 14th: only stop-ship *regressions* (versus 1.0 or 1.0.1) can be added to the hot list; 4/14 is code freeze April 15 – April 20th: mandatory one week cool down April 21st: planned 1.0.2 release date (assuming no regressions discovered during cool down) Jeffrey - What about PII changes? Arthur - Those are like UI changes and should be avoided. |

6. Other Business -
Open
Hot Bug Process
Arthur - Let's continue the discussion.
David - We should make better use of bugzilla and move the discussion of Hot Bugs off the wtp-dev list.
Kosta - We are not using severity in conformance with the bugzilla definitions. WTP works closely with adopters so we could alter the definition of severity to allow it to indicate adopter problems. So if we allow altered meanings of severity we could eliminate the independent Hot Bug List.
Arthur - I wanted an independent list to guard against adopter requests being lost. Anyone can change a severity, priority, or alter the summary.
TimD - We should keep the info in bugzilla can treat that as authoritative.
TimW - Are there resticted fields in bugzilla that we could use to capture Hot Bug info in a durable way?
Arthur - I'm not aware of any. Only the comments are write-once. Perhaps we could do some type of query on the comments and the id of the commenter.
Ted - The weekly Hot Bug reviews are very useful. Adopters should maintain their own lists to prevent requests from being lost. We shouldn't worry about malicious removal
Kosta - How about using bugzilla, adding a comment and a justification, and add nominated monitor, i.e. Jeffrey, to the cc list?
Arthur - We are agreed that we should make bugzilla the authoritative source of the Hot Bugs. We are timing out now so let's let Jeffrey propose a solution on the wtp-dev list.
