Our project team is currently using Eclipse 3.4. Our project contains XML
and XSL files that cause validation errors in the IDE (but are valid at
runtime) so we have to disable validation in the IDE.

I have started to evaluate migration to 3.5, and have encountered
differences in the .settings/org.eclipse.wst.validation.prefs:

USER_PREFERENCE=overrideGlobalPreferencestruedisableAllValid ationfalseversion1.2.102.v200905201610
vals/org.eclipse.wst.xsl.core.xsl/global=FF02

If I commit this my (3.5) version of the .settings, will Eclipse 3.4 be
able to handle the USER_PREFERENCE version number?

Normally, once a workspace is migrated, it is not reliable on previous
version, but in the case of files that are shared via SVN such as the
settings directory, what is the correct way for a team to migrate? If I
commit the .settings file, will team members using 3.4 get errors?

I was not able to find anything regarding migration that covers this
specific issue. If I overlooked something, please provide a link.

Copying to the eclipse.webtools group since this is essentially about
the WTP project.

If you can upgrade to Eclipse 3.5, you can set on a per project basis
the validation settings for XSL files. This is particularly handy for
templates that can't be found, as you can change these to warnings
instead of errors.

Hopefully we'll get project level validation settings for XML as well.

The question has become more general in recent days. Some of the developers on the team would like to upgrade to 3.5 to evaluate new features, while the rest of the team stays with 3.4.

If the 3.5 users commit any of the project files (.settings/*) will there be any problems for the 3.4 users when they update their project from SVN?

Specifically, can a mix of 3.4 and 3.5 users operate on a shared project without stepping on each other?
