[dsdp-tm-dev] Please use TM/RSE for your daily work wherever	possible!
 | 
Dear committers,
with 2.0RC1, we've brought TM/RSE into the endgame of release candidates.
In order to find final bugs (especially the really annoying ones), I'd 
like all of us to use RSE in your daily work wherever possible. Use the 
TM Terminal or RSE connections instead of your normal command prompt; be 
it on local or remote. Use RSE to browse into archives, or copy files 
and folders around. Use RSE to edit remote files or execute remote 
programs. The really adventurous of us can even set up an RSE EFS 
connection to the Local file system, and use this in JDT to edit your 
Java programs :-)
Customize RSE with filters, table column headers, preferences etc. to 
work the way you want it to work.
I know that some things may be annoying at first, and you may think "I'd 
be a lot faster doing this if I did not use RSE". But this experience is 
important in order to find and fix those issues that still make RSE 
unpleasant to use.
"Eat our own food" is the single most important technique to find and 
fix those issues that really matter to our users. Let's do it NOW. This 
also applies to contributors, users other interested parties: if you 
want a good TM 2.0 release to consume yourself, use the prerelease NOW 
so we can find and fix the issues that matter to YOU.
In terms of bug fixing priorities, please focus on the hi-severity / 
hi-priority issues: Especially the ones listed on the "Known Issues and 
Workarounds" Wiki and those that you find really annoying yourself, when 
you use RSE.
Thanks,
