| [ecf-dev] ECF 3.1 release (imminent) | 
Hi Folks,
My slewis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx email address is now obsolete...please use 
slewis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx going forward.
As a result of this email changeover, my mailing list subscriptions with 
the Eclipse Foundation have been messed up over the last couple of days, 
and I haven't been able to post to this or any other eclipse.org mailing 
list...so it's quite possible I have missed some direct correspondence 
from ECF community members...my apologies for that.  If you sent me 
something recently and haven't heard back, please just resend to 
slewis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx.
Moving (quickly) forward
ECF passed our 3.1 release review (see below), and we are free to 
release ECF 3.1.  I would like to do this as soon as is possible, and I 
think it's probably possible (for me and others) by Monday, October 12.  
The things remaining to do are:
1) Complete build system additions to build off new branch 
(Release_3_1).  Note I made the Release_3_1 branch last night (Wed), and 
if you are committing additions or changes be aware that this branch 
exists (e.g. if you have a bug fix that should go into Release_3_1, it 
has to be applied to both HEAD and the Release_3_1 branch).
2) Create/finish a New and Noteworthy for the 3.1 release.  Part of this 
is done via the release review slides...which are available here for 
your reference [1].
If those of you involved with the various major new (and noteworthy!) 
parts of ECF (REST API, Distributed EventAdmin, File-based discovery 
(Siemens) would be able/willing to provide me with an html blurb a few 
lines long describing these things I will construct the N&N from that.  
Please send it to me as soon as possible. 
3) ECF's Helios automated plan is online here [2].  I would like to add 
to and update the plan over the next week (i.e. include input from 
Philipp and others about additional things, as well as edit, add plan 
bugs for more specifics, etc).  If people would like to discuss these 
(or other) plan items, please do so soon on this mailing list.  I'm very 
happy to change/add/delete what's there, but it mostly depends upon 
input from the other committers, contributors, and community members.
4) We haven't had an ECF conference call in the past few weeks...my 
apologies for that.  I will arrange for and conduct an ECF conference 
call next Thursday (Oct 15) at the previously used time (15:30 UTC I 
believe).  See [3].
There are some great and exciting things happening with both EclipseRT 
and ECF these days...as you can plainly tell from ECF 3.1...so full 
steam ahead!
Thanks,
Scott

Hi Scott,
We checked your Communication Channel this morning, and there was no 
request to hold your review on a conference call tomorrow. Therefore, 
there will be no Review Call, and the EMO has declared your review to 
be successful based on your review docuware and on community feedback.
Congratulations on your successful Release Review! Please post on your 
Communication Channel that your review was successful. Then you may 
release ECF version 3.1.
Thanks. Please let me know if you have any questions.
