The Technology PMC is lead by Gunnar. But Chris and I can take the
initiative.
I would not ask for a respin to address the m2e-wtp "problem". IMHO,
the errant feature conforms to the spirit of the rules and so does
not warrant a respin in and of itself.
I would not, however, say no if there is an opportunity to slip the
corrected feature JAR in.
Is that vague and non-committal enough?

And, luckily for you all, I am
not the
(final) decision maker here ... for me, it has to be a "causes

respin
:)
But, there is a Planning Council
Exception
process and I'm quite happy to listen to the judgement of other
planning
council members if the risks are worth the benefits.
So, I'd like the Planning Council
rep
for these two projects to send "exception requests notes" to
Planning Council list (if they agree a respin is required) and
solicit
the necessary support from other PC members.
I know most of you hate process
...
but ... this is one reason why we have it ... so things just
don't come
down to my judgement.
I've sent an email to Ed (CDOs
rep)
asking him his opinion and if he agrees to send note to Planning
Council
list and by this note, ask the m2e-wtp
representatives to do the same (you are in Technology project,
right? ...
so that'd be Wayne or Chris).
I don't mean to belittle either
issue
(or, "be hard" on anyone personally) ... but ... as a release
engineer, I am too aware of the many things that can go wrong
with a last
minute respin and the risks of making things worse.
Thanks for your patience,

+1 for a respin. That'd -hopefully- allow the build
to
pick up a now conform (epl-v10.html/signed) mavenarchiver
feature for m2e-wtp. https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=410670

Hi
CDO is too important a project to not fix this, so I vote for
the (partial)
respin.
Thanks!
Maybe next year we can have a bit more reviewing,
approving
and testing.
I invite you to work on CDO internals and become a
committer,
so that you can review us next year :P
Cheers
