The meeting on 2/5/08 was attended by: David, Martin, John, Mike D.

Mike D.

  • Redoing "publish" functionality in RD
    • Added repository exploring
    • Added the ability to create new folders in the repository
    • Noted that all RD changed for "ease of use" are cbeing checked into the TRUNK of RD
    • Noted that all platform changes for "RD each of use" are being checked into the TRUNK of the platform
      • There was a brief conversation about the above and if this will present a problem with version 1.7 and the possibility of 1.8

Martin

  • Going to create a Wiki page about the RD toolbars / menubars / etc.
  • He is continuing to work on the RD 2.0 integration with the reporting engine (metadata integration)

David

  • Still working on the Charting API and is currently working on using libcss to load stylesheet information
  • Spent MOnday and Tuesday building/testing the engine 0.8.9.3 and deploying to source forge and the related Pentaho projects
    • Discussed with Martin if the engine jar files should be put in the 2.0 branch of Report Designer and Martin said that it should not - Martin will also remove the current engine jars from the RD 2.0 branch

Thomas (from email after the meeting)

Short update: 0.8.9-3 should be on its way and if David
manages to avoid to hit any of the bugs that are still in
there, he will surely upload the beast within the next
hours or days.

Other than that I returned to the 0.8.10 development and
continued my quest on the meta-data and the fileformat.
(Which will be fully done (parser + specification) at the
end of the week.)

Short term schedule:

* 10-Feb.: Parser done and fileformat + metadata{{ layer fully defined. Wizard functionality will be{}}}{{ available.}}
* 17-Feb: Complete a writer so that old reports can{{ be converted into the new report format. At that point{}}}{{ the report-designer should be able to switch to the new{}}}{{ writer without troubles.}}
* 24-Feb: Interactivity Layer complete. Swing preview{{ and HTML export will be fully interactive.}}
* 2-Mar: OLAP integration is done. (Crosstabbing is a{{ subset of that task, so this one will be solved as well.)}}
* After that: Hardening, bug-hunting, and some weeks later: 0.8.10-GA. Â
