[platform-ui-dev] M7 has been release - Rules for RC1

Friends of Platform UI,

now that M7 has been release, we can work on RC1. This our "polish" release. Please keep the rules for RC1 in mind:

May 4 - 13 - contributions to RC1

Focus: (1) P1 defects, (2) performance defects, (3) special "polish" items. Fixing other defects has lower priority.

Fix approval: Another committer must +1 your bug report. All changes must have their associated bug reports tagged 4.6 RC1. Ongoing changes to component documentation do not require special approval.

Feature work and API change approval: PMC must approve all feature work and API changes. No changes are to be released without prior approval and associated bug report. Send the request for approval to the eclipse-pmc@xxxxxxxxxxx mailing list. If a change is made to API to make it binary compatible with a previous release, technically this is still an API change, and thus it must be treated in the same way as any other API change requests.

Extra checking requirements: One additional committer must check all code changes prior to release.

No bugs must appear in the following query: When your bug appears there, make sure that it gets the review+ flag or add the 'Documentation', 'example' or 'test' keyword if appropriate.
