Hi Wim
      
      
      For testing, I tried to "release" the cwt bundles and features in
      eclipse ide with version tiger plugin.
      To be able to update also the parent pom (cwt/pom.xml) I imported
      this into eclipse as project.
      Then I defined "Release" as "Version operation" in the version
      tiger dialog and pressed "Finish".
    
    
    
    
    The changes made by version tiger look good to me:
    
    
    It removed the "-SNAPSHOT" in the manifest.mf and pom.xml as well
      as feature.xml and category.xml
    
    Thus, I assume version tiger would work for nebula if you import
      the parent (e.g cwt) projects into eclipse, or when you use
      version tiger command line tool (very useful for repetetive tasks
      like release, snapshot or increment bugfix version etc. We use it
      when we automatically release tycho builds within jenkins).
      Maybe, you can remove the version dependencies from the plugins to
      the parent pom but use version tiger to keep these version equal.
    
    
    
    >would it also know plugins and the connection between
      MANIFEST.MF and pom.xml
      Yes. That is one of the very good reason we use it: keep the
      version in sync. (manifest.mf, plugin.xml, category.xml, feature.xml,
      updatesite.xml...)
    
    Our "version tiger specialist" is currently out of office. I will
      ask him for a solution/thoughts regarding the parent pom version
      dependency
    
    
    Cheers Jan

            Hi Jan,
              
            
            Unfortunately this does not work for the Nebula repository.
            We have the widget version in the parent directory which the
            tool does not recognize. If it would, would it also know
            plugins and the connection between MANIFEST.MF and pom.xml?
            
          
 
          Cheers,
