[wtp-releng] Status and outlook for WTP M7 ... S build

[David M Williams <david_williams@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Remember to look at/test the S build
today. (not I-build). 

http://build.eclipse.org/webtools/committers/wtp-R3.2.0-S/20100429210436/S-3.2.0M7-20100429210436/

Unfortunately the JPA Unit tests "Did
Not Finish" ... as they sometimes don't ... 
 probably just because the server
was busy. 

Would the Dali team like a re-build?
With the hope their unit tests have time to run? 

I also think some of the "releng
tests" changes were not done in time to be picked up by this build.

(I am thinking this because after the
S-build completed this morning, another build was started, 
so something changed. If anyone knows
of any more important fix was contributed, that does _require_ 
a rebuild, be sure to say so. I killed
the re-started build so as to not waste resources, and put 
the builds on pause, until we know we
need one. 

I'm open to other ideas, but my recommendation
is to 

A. confirm what we have, that is, finish
or update 
http://wiki.eclipse.org/WTP_Smoke_Test_Results_R320_04292010


B. Still declare around noon today.


C. After that, move up to platform's
final M7 (and other pre-reqs, if they are ready), re-run 
over the weekend ... and if any problems
pop-up in JUnit tests consider then if we need a fix, 
and promote an M7a by Tuesday. 

Let me know if any concerns (or, if
problems found in your final confirmations). 

Thanks,
