[eclipselink-dev] Freezing master till Monday Oct 21 - switching master

[Lukas Jungmann <lukas.jungmann@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

   I'd like to ask all committers to not merge anything to master from 
now till Monday Oct 21 or till PR #381[1] gets merged - whatever comes 
first.

   We've completed work on PR[1] which migrates EclipseLink build from 
the ant/Tycho mix to pure maven and we would like to avoid rebasing it 
as the change itself touches >20k files.

   The PR[1] itself consists of three commits:
1) maven files, migration related scripts
2) the switch itself
3) clean up

   How the build is supposed to work after the switch is documented at 
https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/eclipselink/wiki/Building-EclipseLink#mvnbuild

   We kindly ask all committers to spend some time on trying this out 
and/or reviewing this PR. Should there be at least 3 approvals and no 
requests for changes in the PR by Friday Oct 18, we'll merge the change 
to master on Friday.

   Note: We are not planning to make the same change in any other branches.

Thanks,
--lukas
