I don't know anyone in our team who would say the release on March 18
didn't have release quality.

Please carefully read, what people are writing!!

The only point that has been argued is that this release does not
qualify as a *service release*, which we still define as a release
with only bug fixes, no new features and hence no new bugs.

And mind you: when JDT devs mention that we might have bugs in
a certain build, that build probably still has higher quality than
many other releases shipped from Eclipse.org :)
