[dsdp-pmc] PMC Executive Summary for TM Helios Release

Dear DSDP PMC,
 
The Helios Release Requirements originally stated that PMC's have to approve projects' release with Helios, and provide an executive summary:
http://eclipse.org/helios/planning/EclipseSimultaneousRelease.php#pcReleaseReview
 
The requirement has later been relaxed on the cross-project mailing list, allowing projects to provide their own executive review:
http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/cross-project-issues-dev/msg04179.html
 
So, here is the PMC Executive Summary for Target Management 3.2:
 
While the Remote System Explorer (RSE) continues bringing its steady value to the Community with only small incremental improvements, the TCF component has seen a strong Community uptake and important innovations in the 3.2 Release. New TCF features include a fast Streams service with zero copy data transfer; a dynamic plug-in system for the plain C agent; and the Eclipse Debugger (EDC) based on TCF.
  • RSE 3.2 is mostly a maintenance release (stability, performance, usability)
  • RSE FTP connection has been made robust
  • Terminal now also for Local connections on Linux, Solaris, Mac (incubating)
  • TCF new features: Streams service, Zero Copy binary transfer, Debug Server as Value-add, new targets (Symbian, Mac, x86_64), dynamic agent plugin system, Eclipse Debugger (EDC) as part of CDT.
Thanks,
--
