[cross-project-issues-dev] Re: [eclipse.org-planning-council] Europa Fall Maintenance still in progress?

This is a very good question indeed.

3.3.1.1 for the platform is an emergency fixpack to address a couple
regressions caused by 3.3.1.
I would hope that the corresponding Europa update meets the same criteria.
If a fix is not absolutely critical, then it can probably wait for the
normal Winter update.

So my personal vote would be to avoid introducing more changes than we have
to (unless we are asking for troubles).

I've been publishing our 3.3.x stream builds (EMF 2.3.x) to the Europa
site based on the assumption they would be contributed to the eventual
Winter Maintenance. I can easily back these commits out when/if we get
the green light for 3.3.1.1 and the EFMv2 build.

Or, can there be two branches of Europa sites? One for fall contribs
and one for winter?

As an aside, are we no longer cross-posting these messages to
cross-projects-issues-dev@? Increasingly it seems like the planning
council list is used more than the old cross-projects list. Does the
planning council not need its own list for planning council
discussions not related to Europa/Ganymede?
