[cross-project-issues-dev] Oxygen.1a is broken when installed on top of

[Stephan Herrmann <stephan.herrmann@xxxxxxxxx>]

On day 2 after the Oxygen.1a there was quite a disastrous report on SO:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46731161/jdk-9-wont-let-me-use-strings-java-lang-string-is-ambiguous

It turned out to be a "simple" installation problem, and I'm afraid
that many users will run into this, too:

Installing Oxygen.1a on top of the BETA Patch feature does not
effectively install the released version of JDT plug-ins.

I believe this needs to be communicated immediately to all those
who previously installed the patch feature.

Which channel?
I don't know, "check for updates" doesn't have a web page ...

PS: needless to say, that the RC2a respin is also without effect in this setting.
