Don't know if this is the best place to ask, but I'm wondering why
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ is still showing 3.5M6 even though M7
appears to have been released end of last week:
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/S-3.5M7- 200904302300/index.php.
Hope the final Galileo release will be more "simultaneous" than these
milestone releases are :-)

I suspect that is because the EPP packages for M7 are not due until
later this week (according to
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Galileo#Milestones_and_Release_Candi dates). The
Downloads page usually links to the package downloads rather than the
Eclipse Project downloads which is what was delivered last Friday.

Also noteworthy is that the EPP packages have been running a little
behind that published schedule, so they may not be ready by this Friday.

Hope this helps,
Eric

Thanks, didn't know about the "Galileo Release Schedule" calendar, useful.
