Rel Eng: 
- *proposed* 3.0 M6 build schedule 
  - Monday Dec 15  08:00 EST - 3.0 M6 Warm-up build 
    - this is just a warm up 
    - rebuilds will only be run if their are compile errors, missing 
plugins 
      or the build is unusable.  (Same as the integration build rebuild 
      policy) 
  - Tuesday, Dec 16 - 3.0 M6 Test Candidate build 
    - 3.0 M6 build toward Test candidate at 8 am, noon, 4 pm, and 8 pm 
      builds if map files are updated 
    - goal: a good build for the test pass on Wednesday 
    - all teams need to sign off on  that candidate build is good enough 
to 
      use for Wednesday's test pass 
    - for a rebuild, only team(s) requesting the rebuild need to recheck 
and 
      sign off (although they may request other teams to revalidate 
      potentially affected functionality) 
    - we are writing a tool that will send an email to eclipse-dev the 
names 
      of teams that have updated their map files for each build and thus 
are 
      required to validate the build 
  - Wednesday, Dec 17 (all day) - 3.0 M6 Test pass 
    - intensive 1-day test pass on M6 candidate 
  - Thursday, Dec 18 - Builds toward Milestone candidate 
    - 3.0 M6 build toward Milestone candidate with 8 am, noon, 4 pm, and 8 
pm 
      builds if map files are updated 
    - for a rebuild, only team(s) requesting the rebuild need to recheck 
and 
      sign off (although they may request other teams to revalidate 
      potentially affected functionality) 
    - goal: a milestone candidate for Friday 
  - Friday, Dec 19 
    - final sanity check, all teams sign off, 3.0 M6 is released. 
- Please note that these builds are run from cron.  So if you don't have 
your 
  submission in on time, you will have to wait for the next build bus :-)

 Status

Debug: 
- bug fixing 
- received/reviewed/integrated initial "source lookup facilities" 
  contribution. The initial contribution is a set of interfaces and 
extension 
  points. Now awaiting contribution of implementation. 

Ant: 
- bug fixing 

Rel Eng: 
- writing tool to diff map files between milestone candidate builds to: 
  1) determine if there is new input requiring a rebuild 
  2) determine which teams have updated map file for build validation 
- committed  *work in progress* draft of build infrastructure/script 
template 
  and documentation to org.eclipse.releng.basebuilder.  Doc to be verified 
by 
  Core (PDE Build), still working on instructions on automation of JUnit 
  plug-in testing, build publishing. 
- bug fixing 

Platform/JDT Text: 
- bug fixing 
- memory leak fixing 
- improvements to the linked position infrastructure and navigation 
- released reworked annotation handling to HEAD, highlight: 
  - prepares head less annotation handling 
  - separates annotation handling from markers 
  - explicitly introduces temporary annotations 
  - supports annotation types as subtypes of other annotation types 
  - supports sparse marker annotation type specifications 
  - simplifies handling of custom markers 

JDT/UI: 
- memory profiling 
- bug fixing 
- 2.1.3 bug fix (rename of package fragment)
