## Minutes
### CDT 11.1.0
- Jonah gave a status update on CDT 11.1.0, summarized as all in hand for release next week
### CDT LSP
- Gesa gave a demo of [Eclipse CDT LSP - LSP based C/C++ Editor](https://github.com/Bachmann-electronic-GmbH/eclipse-cdt-lsp)
- Discussion on how to migrate this into the Eclipse CDT project without affecting the development velocity.
- Bringing Gesa and Christian on as CDT committers is required to fully migrate. This is similar to how Martin [became a committer](https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/tools.cdt/elections/election-martin-weber-committer-eclipse-cc-development-tooling-cdt) when he contributed parts of cmake4eclipse to CDT.
- **Action: Jonah** to work with Gesa on a plan and timeline
- Discussion on making this accessible as early preview to non-Eclipse developers as the current code requires running from source. The early version is already quite
- Likely this will happen as part of migrating the code into the Eclipse CDT project where it can be made available on download.eclipse.org as a p2 site.
- **Action: Jonah** to help facilitate this, probably in alignment with migration plan
- Roadmap of CDT for LSP discussed, including items such as:
- AST support going forward, clangd provides some AST extensions, can this be exposed to front end in CDT?
- Codan support, can Codan and clangd exist simultaneously?
- CMake / clangd project natures
- Smart importer
- **Action: Jonah** to build on the [TODO section in the README](https://github.com/Bachmann-electronic-GmbH/eclipse-cdt-lsp) to give visibility to interested parties what can and what will be done
