Mitigating the Woes of Developing and Releasing GlastRelease
* Allow ample time for GlastRelease ReleasesA tag does not equal a Release in the full sense of the word.. system tests needs to be run and validated.** * Systems TestsWe need more people involved in running and interpreting system test results** Start running system tests on HEADs for P8 *** First need to increase our disk allocation* Windows Support** VC90 requires full Debug externals - while Optimized requires full Opt externalsCertainly seems we only need Debug buildsOptimized builds should be discontinued, and all Windows externals will be provided as full debug with source and distributed via the RM
* SCons RMNeed a better way to deal with failures (especially windows ones)** Unit tests and zip files periodically fail to appear ** Define a cron job to automatically reset the permissions on the windows zip files
* TMine** Define Unit tests** Reintroduce the direct use of TMine into GR, while also maintaining the TMineExt *** TMine Developers want access to TMine as a unit independent of GR*** However, we need to insure that the same version of ROOT and SConsFiles is used to build TMine in the context of GR GR can use TMine and its associated packages directly via the packageList.txt, and TMine is no longer an external library.
