Despite Hudson's attempts to thwart our progress, our RC3 repo is done and
testable at

http://download.eclipse.org/releases/maintenance/

and this one is a true release candidate!  (though, I know a few more bug
fixes are planned for RC4, our final build).
Thanks to all those fixing "legal file" type problems, etc. to get as close
as possible to final form.

http://build.eclipse.org/indigo/simrel/index.html

Remember that once we release Indigo SR2, it will joining the Indigo
Release and Indigo SR1 repositories as a composite repo, at

http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo/

This RC3 build will be a good one to test as a "pseudo composite" by
careful construction of your software repository list. See
http://wiki.eclipse.org/SimRel/Simultaneous_Release_FAQ#What.27s_the_best_way_to_test_with_the_staging_repository.3F

This is important to test for things like "updates"
(You will have to wait till Friday, to test "updates" if you start with an
EPP Package).

and to confirm no features/bundles accidentally went "down" in version
number or in general other issues that can work fine in isolation, but fail
in composite repositories.

Test early, test often.

Thanks,
