Re: [tycho-dev] tycho 0.20.0 milestone release

[David M Williams <david_williams@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I was going to make two comments ... now
three. 

First, we in the platform have been
using 0.20.0-SNAPSHOT for our Luna builds without issues, so that's good.


Second, our M6 +0 day is March 7 so
we'd need a "released" version by March 3rd or so, to use for
our M6. Sounds like that would be too large a change in schedule to request?
So we in Platform will drop back to 0.19.0 for our M6 milestone ... just
because its better to provide milestones with released versions of Tycho
(or any pre-req or tool).

Third, as I understand it, one of the
gating factors was to get/use Kepler SR2 as the "base" of this
release (to pick up some fixes in p2) ... so ... in that vein, guess you'd
heard that p2 is asking for an SR2 respin, to fix 
bug 428575 [1]. So, hoping you can review/get/incorporate
that fix in case you think it may effect Tycho 0.20.0. Hopefully make it
better? (But, may be be irrelevant?) 

Thanks much, (your 0.20.0-SNAPSHOT has
really helped us make progress on our Java 8 BETA builds ... thank you
for that!)

Tycho committers,

as usual we'd like to do a tycho milestone release in time for EclipseCon
(March 17-20).

I propose to stage tycho 0.20.0 [1] on March 7 and release it on March
14 (unless major regressions are found during 1 week of testing).
At this point we don't have a dependency on Luna M6 (or on Luna at all)
so we don't have to wait for Luna M6 which is released on March 14.

Any objections?

Regards,
Jan
