[tools-pmc] Eclipse Memory Analyzer release review

[Andrew Johnson <andrew_johnson@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

Eclipse Memory
Analyzer is intending to release version 1.8 as part of the Photon Simultaneous
Release.

I see from here
that we are meant to have submitted our IP log.
https://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/cross-project-issues-dev/msg15594.html
Unfortunately
I think our project lead (Krum) is unavailable for the next week or two,
and I am not sure if he has submitted the release review documentation
including IP logs etc.
https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/tools.mat/reviews/1.8.0-release-review

Do we need to
submit anything more?


Technically we
have this version currently in Photon
1.8.0.201805111338
which is a good
version. I have committed a few Java 9/10 fixes since then and a new and
noteworthy file, so we could do with submitting a final version. Krum might
be back in time for that.

Unfortunately
we have build problems: 
https://ci.eclipse.org/mat/job/tycho-mat-nightly/771/
to
https://ci.eclipse.org/mat/job/tycho-mat-nightly/786/

See this for an
example failure
https://ci.eclipse.org/mat/job/tycho-mat-nightly/785/consoleText
and I can't see
what's going wrong with Tycho - it used to work.
534578: Build
MAT 1.8 stand-alone packages with Eclipse Photon
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=534578
so although we
have an update site built, the RCP build step then failed.

Does anyone have
some hints?

Regards,

Andrew Johnson
