I have update the features-ep.xml with
RC7 features. The plugins and features are replicating to eclipse.org,
should be there within an hour.

Subject	[cross-project-issues-dev] Proposal for a Callisto RC4a

We discussed before ... and said "if reason found" we'd re-consider
... and I think there is now reason to promote an RC4a, which is just like
RC4, except the base platform would 
be moved up to its RC7 level. The main reason, for me, is to pick up the
update manager improvements described in bug 144876 ( https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=144876
). 
Technically speaking, we would not even *have* to re-issue Callisto, if
users simply started with the Eclipse SDK RC7, but 1) I would not want
to publically encourage this, since 
none of the other Callisto projects have had a chance to test, or voice
dissent with that plan, and 2) would prefer an orderly official "rollout"
to practice good process. 

So .. any objections to us providing an RC4a? As detailed below? I think
only expectation on projects would be to do some sanity checking to make
sure RC7 didn't accidentally introduce some 
breaking change ... if it did, of course, we'd really want to know that
anyway! ... so, this note is just to give some "fair warning"
that this is the plan, and see if anyone objects. 
If I hear no objections, I'll assume silence is consent, and prepare this
RC4a version. Thanks.
