Re: [lts-iwg] Running offline builds for LTS

Hi Thanh,

Inspired by the recent switch to CLA and Signed-off-by I have a question:
shouldn't this commit and all other commits that reuse an existing commit
from a community branch preserve the actual author and/or committer? Or
maybe we should have multiple Singed-off-by entries?

I'm almost sure that this kind of information should be preserved when
reusing commits between community repo branches, but I'm not sure if and
how it applies to LTS repos.

Thanks,
Szymon

Hi Everyone,

I pushed a commit [1] for review to LTS. This commit would allow me to
enable a completely offline Eclipse Platform build for LTS per discussion
in bug 410075 so that in the future if any dependencies on the internet
disappear the LTS Eclipse Platform build will continue to be build-able. We
plan to achieve this by depending on the Maven Local Cache which stores all
the artifacts the build needs after running a regular build and we plan to
snapshot this cache and back it up in case it ever gets corrupt or needs
replacing.

Before this can happen though we need to apply a small patch [1] which
removes a antrun script that does an external download an Eclipse Platform
(Indigo) package. The use of this script was removed in the Kepler stream
and but was never backported to Juno so my patch handles this backporting.
Following the process for LTS I have submitted it for review.
