[orbit-dev] about extractor

["Jeff McAffer" <jeff@xxxxxxxxx>]

For the release process we need to submit all our about files for review.  In reality these should have been reviewed as we went along but that did not happen.  So for now the IP team has agreed to review them “en masse” for Ganymede.  Post Ganymede the IP process will require that the about files be attached to CQs BEFORE the CQ is approved. 

 

So, to facilitate the about review I wrote a simple extractor that yanks anything whose path in a bundle starts with “about” and puts it in another dir named after the bundle (with version numbering etc).

 

See org.eclipse.orbit.releng.aboutextractor in the Orbit repo.
