Just so everyone knows the same thing ... We did re-create
the staging repo after the RC4 packages were created. 
Only AMP and Papyrus changed ... to fix some issues with
missing legal files ... and they are not used in any EPP Packages. 

But that is less than ideal There are some cases where
other projects might have changed their repository content, which would
have gotten pulled into final staging, but not the final packages. I think
everyone knows not to change their projects repositories in such a way
during this time, but ... but I just wanted to be sure all package maintainers
knew the procedure. 

Thanks,

Indigo Packages - status update / build

I've disabled the indigo.epp-repository-build for now.

indigo.epp-package-build
#38 is
running and creates the packages in the usual
place at 

http://build.eclipse.org/technology/epp/epp_build/indigo/download/20110609-2244/

If this build completes without errors it is very likely the build that
we are going to use for our votes tomorrow, I'll let you know by tomorrow
morning. In case you have spare time it would be cool if you download your
package and start with your final tests.

Two additional things are important.

1 - We need to ensure that the packages contain components from mature
projects only, otherwise we need to label it with 'Incubation' (currently
only the LinuxTools package). Package maintainers, please confirm on this
mailing list together with your vote tomorrow that your package does
not include components from projects that are still in incubation phase.
As a side note, I checked this very carefully and don't expect any surprises,
but I need your confirmation!

2 - As we all know, EPP depends heavily on the /releases/staging repository.
In other words, if this repository changes and the changes affect one of
the packages, we need to rebuild them, but only in this case! There are
no package rebuilds planned at this moment. The RC4 packages will be the
ones that are going to be released on June 22nd (they will be renamed and
copied to their final location, but there is no content change, not even
a check-sum change).

Thanks and regards,
