Re: [epp-dev] Indigo RC1 packages

m2e contribution towards Indigo/RC2 will be properly signed using
Eclipse certificate. We track this as Bug 339970.

I've opened Bug 346563 to track wrong bundle and provider names in
org.eclipse.m2e.usagedata and we'll address it for RC2.

As for logging, this requires some explanation.

When m2e is dormant, it obviously does not log anything and I
double-checked that at least on linux x86_64 m2e is not eagerly
activated. We fixed two problems with eager activation since M6 (342232
and 340328, to be specific), but if you still see m2e activated eagerly
and unnecessary, please submit new bugreport in m2e bugzilla and we'll
try out best to address it before RC2.

When m2e is activated it does use slf4j for logging purposes. However,
as we explained on this list last time this topic has been brought up,
something else, i.e. not m2e, pulls in ch.qos.logback.slf4j bundles and
configures it to print debug log messages to console (see [1]). There is
nothing we can do about it from m2e end to stop this. We offered to
implement proper slf4j support at framework level [2], but this proposal
did not receive any support from any Eclipse core committers. The only
other solution I can think of is to block ch.qos.logback.slf4j from
getting included in java epp distro, but I am not sure how to implement
this, if at all possible.

+1 for Java

I noticed three problems:

* m2e bundles are not signed
* org.eclipse.m2e.usagedata does not have a proper bundle vendor and
plug-in name
* m2e still logs debug output on the console

Would be nice to these fixed for RC2.

Hi package maintainers,

I started testing the latest Indigo RC1 build and you should do the same...
The packages are available from

http://build.eclipse.org/technology/epp/epp_build/indigo/download/20110519-1055/

If you want to try to update to RC1 from older package versions before the
release tomorrow, you need to add the following two repository URLs

http://build.eclipse.org/technology/epp/epp_build/indigo/download/20110519-1055/repository
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/staging

Please let send your votes as soon as possible to this mailing list.

Two additional things to note:

- Bug 346410 - Indigo license update of all EPP packages; please check that
I didn't miss anything
- And finally I started the committer election process for all existing
package maintainers today

Thanks,
Markus
