[eclipse-dev] IP logs due Wednesday

[John Arthorne <John_Arthorne@xxxxxxxxxx>]

This Wednesday is the deadline for submitting
our IP logs to the foundation for review as part of the Galileo release.
All committers need to ensure that patches they have released are marked
with the "iplog+" flag by then.  I have been going through
the tentative logs and fixing various mistakes. If you are the bug owner,
please double-check any change I make. If I ask a question about the IP
contribution in the bug, please respond ASAP. 

The most common mistake is putting the
iplog+ flag on the bug itself rather than on the attachment. Putting the
flag on the bug itself marks every comment from a non-commiter as a contribution
in the IP log. This is only intended for use when the contribution is embedded
in a comment and is not available in a patch. If the contribution is in
an attachment, put the flag on the attachment and *not* on the bug itself.
For more details see [1]. 

Here are the tentative logs if you want
to browse through them and see if they look reasonable:
