- Cute Coot?
- Cute Caribou?
Based on planning meeting during EPICS @ SLAC, 23-27 April 2012, release 3.2 is planned for 2012-Sept-30.
== Overall Changes ==
-
GIT - Change repository from Mercurial to GIT. Initially, no rearrangement, just change repo to GIT because of better tooling in Eclipse. (Kunal)
-
Javadoc - Publish javadoc of 'core' sources. Maybe also of other selected sources. (Kay)
-
User Wiki - Create section of Wiki more inviting to end users, facilitating collection of ideas. (Gabriele: Check permissions; Kay)
-
Feature Build - Build many smaller features instead of just whole products. Put features into P2 repo. (Gabriele; Kunal)
-
Eclipse 4.2 - Try to use Eclipse 4.2 to build CSS with compat layer. (Kay)
== Core ==
-
Core Cleanup - Remove what was unbundled and can be removed as soon as no longer references. (Jan)
-
Update platform.libs.epics with latest JCA/CAJ to support DBE_PROPERTY, patch for copying large arrays. (Gabriele)
== Utils, Apps ==
-
Update Logbook API to support BNL/FRIB OLog (tags, ...). Add API for reading entries. Turn OLog viewer into generic Logbook viewer. (SNS; NSLSII)
-
Extend {{{-shared_link}}} command-line option so that it allows specifying the /project/folder, plus allow multiple values separated by ',': {{{-shared_link /path/to/shared/displays=/CSS/SharedDisplays,/path/to/shared/plots=/OtherProject/SharedPlots}}}. No change when used without the {{{..=/Project/Folder}}}, basically defaulting to {{{...=/CSS/Share}}}. (SNS; KEK)
== More Ideas, Longer Term Goals ==
-
PV Name Completion - What could that look like? How to avoid 30-second-wait, then "There are 1.3 million channels"?
-
Move PopupMenuUtil to core
-
- (NSLSII)
-
Further simplification/unification of CSS GUI Product: One product for all sites, where initial dialog (login, workspace, ...), setting of "is local network", site-specific welcome, ... can all be customized without requiring a site-specific product.

-
Move 'compact mode' and 'full screen' as currently provided by BOY to separate plugin (o.c.ui.util?) and bind it to "Window" menu so that toolbar etc. can be hidden from CSS in general, not just from BOY displays.
