Dear Eclipse 4 Committer and Contributor,
first of all I would like to thank you for your great work on Eclipse
4.x, I have already used it a lot and it really makes my life easier :-)
To do marketing for the new version, I have recently published a lot of
articles, blogs etc. For the 4.2. release (Juno) I would like to create
another article. What I plan to do is a mixture of an article and an
interview with the people behind Eclipse 4. It will be published in the
Eclipse Magazine, on Jax Enter and I will blog it. As I do not want to
decide on a single person to ask all the question, my idea was to
interview you as a team. My plan would be to ask the questions step by
step to this list. I would kindly ask whoever thinks, he/she can provide
an interesting answer. If another person has already answered, but you
have another opinion or more information, feel free to post it, too. For
all answers I am also very thankful for additional web links, e.g. to
blog posts. At the end, I will try to extract some of the information
into an article and publish some as the interview. If you want to be
mentioned with your name, please start all answers with "Your_Name:"
I will not post all questions at once, as I want to be able to react to
your answers. If you do not want to have this conversation on the
mailing list, please tell me, I will find another way to communicate then.
Long story short, the first two questions:
Eclipse 4.2 (Juno) is about to be released, what are the major
improvements compared to 4.1? Does Eclipse 4.2 contain new features?
When was the decision made that Juno is not 3.8, but 4.2. and how was it
motivated?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers
Jonas
