[news.eclipse.simultaneous-release] Re: Subversive ready for Ganymede?

Hi Erkki,

We work together with Eclipse Foundation to find a solution for legal 
issues, because it's not only usability problem. In particular, this legal 
issue seems as blocker for project inclusion in standard distribution 
packages, etc. Every party here, like Subversive team, Technology PMC, 
Eclipse Foundation, really want to close legal issues, but it's really 
complicated process. Anyway, we already made step forward in this direction 
and as the result Subversive became an Eclipse project. I beleive that 
someday we will find a solution, which allows us to distribute a project as 
one package.

Best regards,
Igor Vinnykov
