Re: [eclipse.org-planning-council] RE: EclipseCon memory stick and Ganymede M5
|
Hello,
After much discusssion and a close look at the M6 plan, the p2 team has the
regret to announce that it can not commit to produce installers for the
EclipseCon stick.

Pascal: your suggestion sounds great and I'd just love to
see it become reality! If "installer.exe" is just a
rebranded version of eclipse.exe, could it perhaps even
use a JVM that also comes on the Stick?
http://help.eclipse.org/help33/topic/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/guide/
product_def.htm
Could such an "installed-on-the-stick" JRE that's
actually used to run the installer also be installed
(copied) onto the user's hard disk from the same source?
When P2 has issues with Paths on the Mac, what about
shipping P2ified Ganymede for Windows and Linux, but
EPP packages for the Mac?
JRE's: It looks like there was some confusion around 1.4
JRE's; I never suggested to use one of these, I rather
suggested that _if_ we are able to bundle a JRE we should
pick a 1.5 JRE in order to support .pack.gz files.
JRE Redist Licensing: Nick have you followed up with IBM?
FYI, Sun appears to allow free redistribution of its
JRE when it's unmodified and there is some value-add:
http://java.sun.com/javase/faqs.jsp#Licensing
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/jre-1_5_0_14-license.txt
Bjorn/Janet would such a license be acceptable for the EMO?
Thanks,
