+# 2025-05-07 Meeting Notes
+
+## Agenda
+
+- Status 2025-06
+  - EF infrastructure issues: current state and follow-up?
+  - Postponed M2: follow-up and effect on release?
+- Simplification of SimRel requirements: https://github.com/eclipse-simrel/.github/pull/49
+- Dev Effort Funding
+  - Extension of Community Mentor contracts as top priority
+  - ECF issue still relevant? https://gitlab.eclipse.org/eclipse-wg/ide-wg/ide-wg-dev-funded-efforts/ide-wg-dev-funded-program-planning-council-top-issues/-/issues/37
+  - GTK 4 still top priority (after mentors)? https://gitlab.eclipse.org/eclipse-wg/ide-wg/ide-wg-dev-funded-efforts/ide-wg-dev-funded-program-planning-council-top-issues/-/issues/17
+
+
+## Minutes
+
+### Status 2025-06
+- SimRel M2 is scheduled for Friday, 9th May and we will not further postpone it
+- Contributions are still being made (even from Platform) last minute to the general SimRel M2 contribution deadline
+- Nothing else to be done regarding M2/release or the previous infrastructure issues
+
+### SimRel Requirements
+- Ed proposes simplification of SimRel requirements: https://github.com/eclipse-simrel/.github/pull/49
+  - Removes things that nobody is doing (release records, progress reviews, …)
+  - Outdated information (like bundles without manifests)
+- Reasoning
+  - SimRel should not care about that and not require that but be as simple as possible and primarily require to follow the Eclipse Development Process
+  - There are better ways to provide relevant information nowadays, such as via GitHub
+- Some projects still create release records (like CDT) and they may keep providing them (we only remove the formal requirement for them in SimRel requirements)
+- None of the meeting participants objected to the proposed simplifications; PR will be kept open until end of 8th May and if no one objects is considered as approved by the planning council
+
+### Funded Dev Efforts
+- Community mentor contracts
+  - No objections on extending those contracts with highest priority
+- ECF: https://gitlab.eclipse.org/eclipse-wg/ide-wg/ide-wg-dev-funded-efforts/ide-wg-dev-funded-program-planning-council-top-issues/-/issues/37
+  - Platform has a newer HTTP client based only on JDK used by default
+    - May be insufficient in specification environments
+    - But no one complained about the client so far, so either it's sufficient for most users or those user have branded products still embedding the HTTP client from ECF
+  - EPP uses workaround to embed older client from ECF
+    - ECF client has all kinds of third-party libraries
+  - Issue is still relevant (there is work to be done), but currently not in a state to be started
+    - For normal users, it's hard to understand and reproduce the actual issue(s)
+    - None of the planning council members oversee the work and face issues to be addressed by it
+  - *Conclusion:* due to lack of knowledge and interest, change priority to "undecided"
+- GTK: https://gitlab.eclipse.org/eclipse-wg/ide-wg/ide-wg-dev-funded-efforts/ide-wg-dev-funded-program-planning-council-top-issues/-/issues/17
+  - Renesas is working on GTK4 support
+    - More information to be shared in Developers Community Call
+    - More work to be done than can be done by Renesas
+  - Biggest issue is Webkit
+  - *Conclusion:* issue to be kept as the only one at "high" priority to be considered after community mentors; in case funding shall be started, actual tasks need to be clarified in coordination with work on the topic currently done by others (like Renesas)
+
+
+## Next Meeting

+Next meeting will be on June 4th, 2025.
