[wtp-dev] Who's been changing all these .settings?

[David M Williams <david_williams@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I have, that's who! :) 

In my never ending quest to help all
teams, I've started fixing some projects .settings to include the required
and important defaults, 
such as using ISO-8859-1 default (instead
of "users platform").. 

Also, there's settings related to "externalized
string", nonexistent properties, build.properties errors, etc., It
is really cool how many bugs these simple .settings 
will find ... long before users report
them ... so, I'm sure everyone will appreciate the new settings. 

But, if you have some special case,
where you are doing something out of the mainstream, and, for example,
some odd thing you are doing in your build.properties file really is
not an error, but PDE just thinks it
is ... then, by all means, feel free to change your .settings and open
a bug on PDE (and, please CC me if you find items like that). 

Otherwise, please fix the "red
X's" the new .settings reveal, they really are 'bugs', and an easy
quick way to improve our quality now instead of later. 

Thanks,
