Re: [jbosstools-dev] Target Platform Updates :: It's Time To Test Indigo SR2!
With M5a out the door this morning to QE, and testing well underway,
I've turned OFF all the _stable_branch jobs toward M5, and will be
turning the trunk jobs back ON soon - please continue to build locally
before committing changes in trunk to verify that Tycho's happy w/ all
your new hard work.
I'm going switch trunk over to build against the new SR1-M bits so we
can see if anything breaks. Reminder, we only have until *January 13* to
report problems to upstream projects in the Indigo release train. After
that they're into code freeze for their RC builds and getting anything
changed will be harder than getting Max to say something nice about EMF. :D
I'll send a followup when trunk starts spinning against the new TP. M5
will still be set to run against the old SR1 TP so as to minimize the
impact on QE - this of course means that the new TPs will have a
different URL than the previous, so for those in Europe, you'll have to
deal w/ some delay as everything mirrors from Boston to Brno. Can't be
helped, I'm afraid.
Cheers,
Nick

I have a new requirements mirror in place for anyone to play with.

The SR1-M site is completely new, whereas the extras SR1a site is the
same site as before, except it now contains a patched version of Spring
IDE 2.7.2 which won't break your Welcome screen (JBDS-1966).

Next, I'll be creating new target platforms based on this new site
(JBIDE-10289).
