[sirius-dev] [ANN] Sirius 6.2.0

Sirius 6.2.0 is now available.

This version include a few bug fixes and enhancements, but is mostly focused on internal changes and technical debt reduction work that are needed to move Sirius forward to the web.

== Availability ==

Sirius 6.2.0 is available from the following update sites:
* http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/releases/6.2.0/oxygen
* http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/releases/6.2.0/photon

It is recommended you use the update-site matching the version of Eclipse you use to avoid potential issues at runtime.

The complete JUnit and SWTBot test suites used to validate Sirius are published along with all their dependencies in separate update-sites from the core, available at:
* http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/releases/6.2.0/oxygen/tests
* http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/releases/6.2.0/photon/tests

== Compatibility & Requirements ==

Sirius 6.2.0 is compatible with the following versions of Eclipse:
* Eclipse 4.7 (Oxygen).
* Eclipse 4.8 (Photon). Photon is the reference platform.

== New & Noteworthy ==

The complete list of (22) tickets fixed in Sirius 6.2.0 can be found at https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/modeling.sirius/releases/6.2.0/bugs.

Highlights:
* #542678 - Improve the degree of customization of the bundle image provided shape extension point to be compatible with more SVG tags. * #542805 - Remove the `org.eclipse.sirius.diagram.layoutdata` plug-in. It was deprecated and already been replaced in previous versions by the more powerful `org.eclipse.sirius.diagram.formatdata`. * #538853 - Reduce the amount of custom code in the diagrams metamodel. This brings the `diagram.ecore` metamodel closer to a "pure" EMF model, with no custom "hidden" behavior or code dependencies.
* #543177 - Allow vertical spaces removal for sequence diagram.
* #543252 - Have show/hide actions available in visibility mode.
* More uses of our own `Option` type have been converted to use the standard `java.util.Optional`. The effort is far from finished and will probably continue over several versions (see [\#529526](http://eclip.se/529526)). * Various improvements on the GraphQL backend ([#540871](http://eclip.se/540871), [541348](http://eclip.se/541348), [541389](http://eclip.se/541389)) * Several improvements have been made to the `IInterepter` API as part of [\#542839](http://eclip.se/542839). This effort is still ongoing but the patches which have been merged in 6.2.0 include some API breaks. Refer to the release notes for the details.

The release notes and the full documentation will soon be published at https://www.eclipse.org/sirius/doc/Release_Notes.html.
