Scott,

What version of ECF are you planning to contribute to the point release of Ganymede? I don't think we should upgrade the ECF bundles included in the SDK to something that will be a higher version than what ECF contributes to the point release of Ganymede. Otherwise wouldn't we risk introducing compatibility issues for the other ECF bundles delivered in Ganymede?

I also think moving bundles up by a minor version during a point release will raise red flags for the PMC and will likely make it hard to get approved for this release.

Hi Pascal,

There is a 2.0.1 version.  Though if possible I would suggest using the 
ECF 2.1 version which we are releasing next week (24th).

So my questions for you:  when is the platform build for 3.4.2?   Can 
ECF 2.1 be used instead (i.e. only the plugins that we are 
contributing...not all of ECF 2.1)?.  This would be more desirable from 
both our and consumers point of view as we've been applying recent bug 
fixes to filetransfer providers to 2.1 stream (as well as HEAD).  The 
only significant change for 2.1 over 2.0.1 is the better error code 
support (i.e. https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=226769).  
Everything else is completely internal bug fixes.

In any event, please let us know about the timing of things, so we can 
plan for resources to do the build, get stuff to platform in agreed upon 
way, etc.
