Re: [tycho-user] please test stages tycho and tycho-extras build 0.15.0

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=380027 seems like a pretty big problem to me. 

The TL;DR is that running 0.15 on a box will cause subsequent 0.14 builds to fail. This is a show stopper for organisations with lots of builds as not everyone can update their build dependencies at the same time. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if it impacts at least some Eclipse projects once 0.15 is released. 

This can be avoided by building with a clean cache each time but there are some places where this doesn't happen. Fixing with a 0.14.2 release suffers the same problem that people don't update versions at the same time. 

Finally there are often requirements to go back and fix/patch older releases (eg Eclipse 3.7.2 was released way after 3.8 was in development). When you go back you use the older took chain at the time and you don't want your adoption of a newer version to cause problems in creating patches.
