Hi Jeff and Pascal,

The fix for http://bugs.eclipse.org/_258680_ and 
http://bugs.eclipse.org/237936 is the one thing that could motivate 
moving IMHO.  In the absence of any other critical issues I'd stay on 
the older version of ECF that shipped with 3.4.
I think these are worthy of inclusion in ECF 2.0.1/3.4.1, along with 
this one:  https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=249990
RE: the issues experienced around gzip support (258680)...I have 
verified that this problem was with the gzip contribution to the 
httpclient provider (not the URLConnection-based provider).  And I've 
retested the gzip support in the URLConnection-based provider today with 
success.

The integration of those fixes caused some churn.  Do you think it 
would cause churn/unstability again given that we know the issues 
now?  Would users be affected in some adverse way?  (not pushing for 
the fix, just curoious)
I don't think inclusion of gzip support is likely to cause any problems. 
As for the HTTP client stuff, well, just seeing it mentioned in the 
context of 3.4.2 made me a little dizzy and I had to lie down for a 
minute.
Jeez, I didn't think PMC disease was that bad :).
RE: the maintenance build...Pascal (and Kim I guess):  Assuming we're 
going to use something newer than last June, process wise how/when are 
we going to get the ECF 6 for 3.4.2 into M-build?  We have been doing 
coordination for the I-build via this bug
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=219499
but if we're going to do it for the M-build then lets create a new bug 
with appropriate people (myself and Ted Kubaska for ECF).
