Day 1 notes

Decisions:

• Cytoscape release: Mid jan, feb.1 as goal for release
• Testing as a task – assign different parts of Cytoscape to developers for testing - offline. How can we get more developers and users involved in testing.
• No 2.7 will be released (decision could be revisited), but we will work on 2.6 and add documentation, bug fixes, small features, new core plugins in maintenance releases. Goal: smooth over most of the workflows.

Discussion threads:

• Introductions (everyone)
• Cytoscape 2.6 development status update
• Testing - how to increase coverage and get better unit tests
• Should we have a 2.7 release?
• Plugin developers have issues with too frequent releases
• Feature suggestion from Carlo: action tracing - how did I get to this result?
• Smoothing workflows may take a while to do
• Break
• 3.0 overview
• Cytoscape problems - things that the RFCs address
• People would like to have a stable plugin API and also access to internal classes
• Going through all of the RFCs
