Official Build: http://downloads.osafoundation.org/chandler/milestones/0_5_03/

What didn't make it

7 bugs for a total SWAG of 21 days (average 4 days per dev):

• 2593 : Creating a new note with a fresh chandler start redraws and DV hides the summary window
• 2611 : Keyboard arrow keys don't work in chandler
• 2750 : Inline edits of event title in calendar are lost if you switch to All app or click another event
• 2800 : Toolbar color should be lighter on the Mac
• 2878 : Starts field reverts back to the original value upon updating the alarm
• 2884 : Drag and Drop out of a table causes subsequent highlight problem
• 2936 : AE: create body attribute editor

Regressions

5 critical fixed before declaring the release:

• 3169 : Creating an "all day" event prevents exporting
• 3173 : Calendar import failing with TyperError^?: can't compare offset-naive and offset-aware datetimes
• 3174 : Unable to share when there is an "all day" event
• 3175 : Unable to set an alarm
• 3180 : Unexpected behavior when setting alarm

1 critical needing immediate fix:

• 3201 : Unable to import calendar

7 non critical, will be fixed in 0.5.04:

• 3149 : Changing length of event does not update "duration" box
• 3171 : Moving mouse off collection name causes name to disappear
• 3176: Crash on Windows when changing focus from Chandler to other app and back to Chandler again
• 3179 : Edit mode persists into different event
• 3193 : Change to the title in the calendar view doesn't instantly update the detail view
• 3198 : Unable to subscribe to calendar published from iCal
• 3202 : Minicalendar only bolds certain days

Schedule Tweaks

Total arithmetic slip: 3 days

The 21 days are mitigated by 4 days of 0.5.04 work done in advance hence an average of 3 days on the entire team.

This arithmetic slip does not warrant a slip of the overall schedule at that point in time.

Lessons Learned

We need a better milestone closing process and coordination with the other teams:

• Declare the trunk frozen (no commit)
• Evaluate regression and critical bugs in bug councils (daily or more till the milestone closes)
• Code review of critical fixes during that period
• Official milestone reached announcement
