[dtp-pmc] Complete: Update Qualifier field and map files for DTP

The DTP code line has been changed over to use "qualifier" in the time
stamp and the map files have been updated accordingly.

Committers: You can still check into CVS HEAD as usual, but will need to
follow the process described in the links below in order to have code
appear in subsequent DTP builds. All CVS HEAD code included in the update
window will appear in DTP builds, but commits from now on must use the map
files.

                                       files for DTP                       
                                                                           
                                                                           
                                                                           
                                                                           
                                                                           
                                                                           



As the next step in the DTP build transition, I need to spin through the
DTP code line and do the following:

1. Change the plug-in qualifier fields from the current date stamps to
".qualifier"
2. Tag CVS HEAD for each plug-in with the time stamp (taken from the value
previously in the manifest file)
3. Update the maps files for these tags

(See http://wiki.eclipse.org/DTP_Build_Transition and
http://wiki.eclipse.org/DTP_Plug-in_Versioning_Policy for more details.)

I would like to do this today, but will need a window in which no other
changes to DTP will be committed. So, I'd like to propose that we have a
change window today from 3:30 ET to 5:30 ET during which I will complete
steps (1) -- (3) above.

Please let me know in the next hour or so if anyone has a problem with
this.

Once these changes are made, all DTP committers will need to use the map
files found in the "org.eclipse.datatools.releng/maps" directory, following
the procedures described in the links above.

I will send out an update to this distribution when the changes are
complete.
