Re: [epp-dev] final checks before the release - part II

I have only seen David respond to this message and Part 1.  Are the other package maintainers listening and just quietly agreeing?  It would be nice to hear back from everyone stating they have gone through Markus's checklist.   Time is running out so last minute request will be harder to implement.

Hi package maintainers,

if there is a "part I", then there will be a part II.

First of all, did you send me any change requests (in a bug/patch or by mail) that have not yet been applied to CVS? If this is the case, please send me a reminder by mail! There were times in the past when I overlooked important fixes.

Second, it would be good if you could have a look at the about dialogs and into the installation details. Is everything as expected?

And third, here is a list with some important bugs that affect all packages - not necessarily complete:

* 310525: Helios Downloads Page Feedback https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=310525
* 287707: [About] About dialog is missing version number https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=287707
* 314953: Add --launcher.defaultAction to eclipse.ini https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=314953
* 293970: Drop Carbon Support for EPP in Helios https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=293970
* 307983: Helios M4..M7 EPP Mac OSX Carbon packages do not start https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=307983

I am concerned about the last two bugs when I realized earlier today that I haven't heard of a single person testing on MacOSX/Carbon. On the other hand: I haven't seen any complaints. So, maybe someone is able to test and verify that bug 307983 still exists. *If* it is still a problem and no one knows the cause (and has a solution at hand) we would need to remove the Carbon packages.

The schedule... well, this week is Helios RC4 but if there are any contributions next week I need to rebuild the packages and will ask for re-testing.

Thanks and regards,
Markus
