Re: [ecf-dev] Re: platform integration build not producing jars

[Scott Lewis <slewis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Markus,

It may be possible for the platform team to consume pack.gz rather than 
jars...I don't know/not exactly sure what they do with them in their own 
build.   But this *is* a change...in the middle of the Helios final 
release process, so it needs to be communicated immediately with the 
consuming platform team.

So please communicate desired change right away to all three of the 
following:

comment on https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=219499
p2-dev mailing list:  p2-dev at eclipse.org
Pascal Rapicault (p2 team lead) at:  pascal@xxxxxxxxxxxx

They may just say 'ok' and all is well.  They may not...but in either 
case we need to work cooperatively so as to get ECF builds into the 
platform during these final days.

WRT 312395...practically speaking, we're not able to address that before 
Helios, and my main concern is to be able to create ECF platform 
integration build so that a recent bug fix [1] can be incorporated into 
the Eclipse release as soon as possible...i.e. since RC2 was produced 
yesterday/Friday we missed it because of this releng problem...and we 
certainly don't want to miss RC3.

Thanks,

Scott
