[orbit-dev] Galileo SR2 maintenance stream is open and ready for busines

[David M Williams <david_williams@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I've started a maintenance branch and
build for Galileo SR2. 

Full details (just to document it) are
in bug 299187.
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=299187

The map files, from our last R-build,
were branched to 

Galileo_maintenance

To get changes required for Galileo
SR2 update the map files there. 

Typically, it is not necessary to (further)
branch any of the actual bundle modules. 
Hopefully any maintenance that is required,
is already done in the Helios stream, and 
its just a matter of using that same
tag in the Galileo_maintenance maps. 

If effect, we are simply choosing a
minimum subset of changes in Helios, to 
also apply to Galileo. If anyone has
anything more complicated than that, 
or, for example, an actual new bundle,
be sure to let us know here on this list. 
(New things, in particular, will take
some more releng work, to map our set1 feature file, 
which as of now, I'm assume can stay
exactly the same as it was in the last R-build. 

For book keeping and easy queries please
open a new bug for any 
Galileo fixes, and set its target milestone
field to "Galileo SR2". In many cases, 
these can just reference the original
bug where some fix or addition was 
already made to Helios. 

Schedule: 

1/11 5 PM.  First M-build promoted
to "downloads" for use by those producing Galileo SR2 RC1. 
(We should get those SAT4J bundles in
there, for use by Platform. These are the only fixes
I have actually heard we require, so
far.)

1/25 5 PM. Final M-build promoted to
"downloads" and renamed to "R-build" for use in all
remaining 
SR2 builds. 

As always, let us know if anyone has
suggestions, or questions.
