Betreff: [cross-project-issues-dev] Some reminders about Helios M4
1. its next
Friday, 12/18!
2. That's the
deadline for expressing intent to participate in Helios, which is formally done
by marking the simultaneousrelease flag in Eclipse Portal (there's a Helios
field to edit to "1"). The list is currently (understandably)
short, so I'll keep my eye on it, and send more nag notes if expected teams
don't mark soon.

3. I suggest we
not "announce" our individual Project milestones until the
Helios M4 date, 12/18. Of course, we need to announce on mailing lists, etc.,
for our committers and adopters ... I just mean the general news items, forums,
and similar, targeted to general end-users asking for early testing. That
is what we have to do for the final release, and I suggest we get in the habit
of working "simultaneously" now, even during milestones. Not a huge
problem, but I do recall some issue in the past where there were complaints or
questions, because someone tried to update part of their environment, but
couldn't, since some other part had not release an M4 version yet. Ends up
being frustrating and making us appear unorganized. (And we all know that's not
true :)
Thanks,
