  Should we move the date?



--------
Status
--------

Debug

* Bug fixing
* API reviewing
* Migration of JUnit and PDE to platform source lookup facilities
* Enhanced base launcher implementation in platform to support/help with compilation error detection before launching, and support scoped build for launching. Others must subclass & override methods to inherit/support the proper behavior.
* Replaced "debugModelActivityBinding" extension point (brand new) with "activityPatternBinding" extension
* Launching uses new job progress reporting dialogs in the workbench. When a launch is requested when a build is in progress, a progress dialog is displayed allowing the user to "run in background".


Ant

* Bug fixing
* API reviewing

Rel Eng

*RCP drops now available in builds > 20040420.
