Deferring P1 defects from TPTP 4.6

[Kathy Chan]

PMC:

As we are moving to TP2 /  TP3 for TPTP 4.6 I3, we are asking for approval to defer some P1 defects from TPTP 4.6:

Test Project

There are three new TPTP 4.6 defect deferrals for the Test Project  (note, defect https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=64786 on the original list has been fixed):

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=237946 Can't delete Plugin-project completely some times in Test perspective: Insufficient time for Jerome to complete this defect.  This defect represents a corner case (periodically cannot delete a plug-in project containing a TPTP JUnit plug-in test in the Test Navigator).  This defect may impact some consuming products.

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=273121 Test launch fails if user selects to overwrite existing test log, but has existing test log open in editor: Insufficient time for Joe to complete this defect.  This defect an extension of the fix for TPTP 4.5.2.1 defect https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=273515.  This defect impacts some consuming products.

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=133099 Providing the ability to record user's interactions with GEF objects in a GEF editor:  After reviewing the open-source community contribution, the risk is too high (excessive API changes) to deliver the patch in TPTP 4.6 since TPTP uses the AGR for internal testing.  As such,  we will build an AGR plug-in with the patch and attach it to the Bugzilla for the open-source community use/testing.  This defect does not  impact any consuming products.

Platform project

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=254487 Profile on server fails with segmentation fault error with IBM JVM:

We tried the fix from the JVM team.  It seemed to improve the situation (in an application that used to crash right the way), it does not crash right the way
anymore.  However, it still crash after the application was left running for a while.  The JVM team is investigating this second symptom of the problem.
Depending on the JVM team's progress, we might not have the complete fix for TPTP 4.6 timeframe and might have to defer this.


Please let us know if you have concern about the deferral of these defects from TPTP 4.6.
