Re: [geclipse-dev] Move to Ganymede

[Markus Knauer <mknauer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We didn't forget this... I had a first discussion with Ariel yesterday about 
the 'when'.

Here is a list of things that need to be done or checked:

* Build system:
  ** build runtime
  ** target environment
  ** EPP environment and configuration
  ** 'some' dependencies to Orbit

* Development system:
  ** we can provide a pre-configured Yoxos environment
  ** everybody tries to set up his/her own development environment...
  ** someone provides a (large) psf file and everybody uses one of
     the packages from eclipse.org

* Source code compatibility
  ** some minor issues (dependency to bundle with new name, etc.)
     easy to solve with a big-bang
  ** API problems CDT etc. - needs to be solved by Thomas/Christof


Regards, Markus
