[epp-dev] Fwd: [cross-project-issues-dev] Note we will be doing a respin of Neon.1 for a MPC fix
Based on a Planning Council decision we need a respin of Neon.1 for fixing a severe bug - see the details in the mail below. Because I believe that this bug needs to be fixed I voted with +1 for the respin.

I'm tracking my own work in this bug

  Bug 505337 - Need an update for Neon.1
  https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=505337

The updates are already pushed to the Git repository, and a new build #447 is running. When it is ready I'll run my own tests and make sure that only the expected changes are included. Additionally it would be good if some package maintainers could take a closer look on Monday and ensure that everything is working. The current plan is to have everything ready and uploaded for a release on Tuesday next week.

Thanks,
Markus

Per the Planning Council's decision yesterday, we will be doing a respin of Neon.1 for a fix in MPC (Market Place Client). Part of the reason, besides it being a very bad "cross-project bug" (several other common projects are impacted, such as using EGit via a proxy), is that there is no easy way for users to "get" the fix without a respin.

See bug 501000 for the problem to be solved by the respin.

See bug 502937 for the mechanics of doing the respin.

NOTE: this will be easiest if we simply usurp .../staging/neon repository for a few days (until about next Tuesday) for the purpose of producing the respin. This means in effect I will be suspending "Neon.2 builds" until the fixed repository and EPP packages are ready.

If this greatly inconvenience anyone working on or testing early "Neon.2" staging, please comment in bug 502937 and I will consider alternatives. Sorry for the short notice, but I will suspend Neon.2 and begin the work approximately noon today.

Thank you,
