[buckminster-dev] Does it matter to "Buckminster" which VM is used for "

[David M Williams <david_williams@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Buckminster team, can one of you comment
on 

Bug 463510
- Should we use Java 7 in the infrastructure signing service? (Is currently
Java 6). 

If I recall, Buckminster does it's own
"repack" and "pack" so perhaps it does not matter much
which VM is used for central signing service ... that is, do you always
specify "-nopack" to central service? Or, only for things like
"features" and "source bundles" but otherwise do you
let the central service do the "repack"? 

Also, do you recognize "eclipse.inf"
options in a bundle? That is, do you recognize 
jarprocessor.exclude.pack =true
and skip (re) packing that bundle? 

I'm trying to help those that have trouble
getting pack200 to "work right" and therefore turn it off for
all their bundles. 

Thanks for any comments and confirmation.
