| Indigo update | Update to the latest Eclipse release (Indigo) | 2 | Accept | ADT Team | Jessica | Status check in M2, Sprint A, M3, Sprint A |
| Systemtap integration | Make it easy and convenient for the user to write and execute Systemtap scripts from the IDE. http://www.eclipse.org/linuxtools/projectPages/systemtap/ might provide a good starting point and may be something we can contribute to. We may also need to contribute further up the chain to provide e.g. remote target capabilities. | 2 | Accept | Tom | Jessica | Status check in M2, Sprint A, M3, Sprint A |
| \'perf scripting\' integration | Make it easy and convenient for the user to write and execute \'perf scripts\' from the IDE. We should be able to leverage and build on the Systemtap integration for this. | 2 | Accept | Tom | Jessica | Status check in M2, Sprint A, M3, Sprint A |
| Finish LSB \"distribution\" work - complete | Complete all work: Merge patches which are pushed during yocto 1.0. Add packages(qt3,xdg-* ...) LSB Test Suite need. Hardware platform x86 and ppc32(if qt4 can be supported) can be finished. | 2 | Accept | Meta-data | WR Distro Team | M2, Sprint A |

| Changes for Image Creator - phase 3 | Phase 3: package format job done + image output type job done | 1 | Accept | ADT Team | Jessica | M2, Sprint B |
| Meta targets | Part of the challenge of autobuilder is that you have to go into autobuilder, edit script, reconfigure, to change just one build target. This is error prone. What we need is a meta-target where Beth can say she wants to build Poky-image-sato for QEMU x86 and have it just do that. Beth thinks this is done via an override to the web page. (takes ~2 weeks) | 1 | Accept | Beth | Beth | M2, Sprint B |

| adding eglibc config control | this goes with the package config options | 1.5 | Accept | RP Notes | Mark | M2, Sprint C |

| Changes for Image Creator - phase 4 | Phase 4: complete plug-in | 1 | Accept | ADT Team | Jessica | M2, Sprint D |
| Enhance the deploy part in remote debug | ADT is currently using org.eclipse.cdt.remote.launch for remote debug. One limitation in this plug-in is that it can only deploy one single file to the target during the debug. Though it is ok for debugging static linked program, debugging dynamic linked program might require deploying multiple files(including executables and libraries) to the target. | 2 | Accept | Lianhao | Jessica | M2 Sprint D |
| BSP builds | Autobuilder git fetcher improvements (3 days) | 2 | Accept | from 1.0 | Beth | M2, Sprint D |

| Tracing: Systemtap usability in Yocto | Right now, there are instructions on the wiki on how to configure and use Systemtap with Yocto. While straightforward, they are tedious and unlikely to be useful to most people pressed for time. We need to make it easier to use - in addition to documentation/HOWTO tasks listed elsewhere on this page, we need to make it usable \'out of the box\' (i.e. outside of ADT) e.g. all paths and configuration handled via script or something similar | 2 | Accept | Tom | Tom | M2, Sprint D |
M2 Stabilize (July 4 to July 15)
