[news.eclipse.tools.pdt] Re: IS 1.1 M1 released?

[Nick Boldt <codeslave@xxxxxxxxxx>]

A number of points of confusion here:

http://www.eclipse.org/pdt/ says 1.1M1 is due May 6. It's May 7, and the 
last build in the 1.1 branch (other than unstable nightlies) was 
I20080407, a month ago.

Meanwhile, you've released what you're calling 1.0.3M1, but the download 
page calls it RC1. Granted, a Stable is a Stable is a Stable, whether 
it's a Milestone or a Release Candidate, but please be consistent!

Could you please update your schedule (http://www.eclipse.org/pdt/) to 
include some revised date(s) for 1.1? September is a long way away for 
nothing but Nightlies. Surely you want to encourage early adopters to 
test your bits and report bugs? If so, we'll need more than one I build 
a month... :)

TIA,

Nick
