Ah, and to clarify regarding accelerated graduation and relation to
Helios, please know this statement from the RT PMC (Jeff):

"... For the incubation period it can either go in the Equinox
Incubator or as a new sub-project that is in incubation mode.  The
latter is fine if there is strong commitment to graduate the function
in a short timeframe (e.g., Helios). ..."

The Eclipse development process requires (beside other things) building three communities and providing a stable API before exiting incubation. And as we are in the runtime space we want to put an emphasis on stable APIs. Your planned schedule seems very ambitious from our point of view.
