------------------------------------
Hi guys,
Yeah, it's more or less just myself that has been working on this so far. I 100%
intend to complete it, and make it as good as it can be in Fedora. The main problem that I
run into though, is time, since I've got a full time job now that means that I only
really get to look at this at the weekend. When I do get to look at the eclipse-jbosstools
package, a lot of that time is spent looking at its dependencies, such as wtp and m2e,
since I'm really the only person maintaining those packages. As you can guess,
it's not too often that I'm in a position to look at adding more of the
subprojects of JBoss Tools (even though I really want to get to that point, and fully
intend to). There are quite a few moving pieces that have to be more or less in line for
it, and because I usually work on it outside the hours of most of the Fedora Java guys
from RH, sometimes there are stumbling blocks that I'll need them to clear, so things
go quite slowly!
Anyway, now that I've got holidays for a while, I should get some time to look at it.
There are a few problems with our m2e-core package that will have to take priority for the
moment.
[~nickboldt]: Regarding the version, -SNAPSHOT only shows up in the naming on the
filesystem, when loaded in Eclipse, the timestamp/qualifier is shown. Max also got me to
add Fedora version to the end of the usual
<version>.v<timestamp>.-<build-alias>. Example:
org.jboss.tools.openshift.egit.core-2.5.0-SNAPSHOT.jar in Fedora 20 is loaded with version
2.0.5.v20131002-2156-Final-F20 -- I think this is mostly for usage reporting, and in case
there are bug reports here that are specific to Fedora builds.
Most of the information I've given here is probably useless, but feel free to contact
me any time if you want any more info on anything about this! :)

John Ford (John64 on Freenode), a college student from Seneca, has expressed interest in
packaging JBT for Fedora. This is a placeholder to track that progress as it relates to
the JBT 3.0.0 release, possibly as part of Fedora 11?
