["David M Williams" <david_williams@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for letting us know of the unexpected
impact, Ed. I'll talk to the team, and coordinate our response. 

For a number of reasons, this may take
several days, so in the mean time ... are there any other projects effected
by this? 
You should be able to tell, other than
brute force searching for the family of classes, by building against our
latest I-build, I20150908-0800, 
or using it as a PDE target. If you
are effected, please comment in bug
434575.

Also, in the mean time, for those of
you that "migrated" (e.g. Doug/CDT, for one) can you briefly
write-up what changes were needed? Or, point to some Git commits that show
the changes? 
I'll confess my ignorance here, but
I'm trying to determine if there is an "easy pattern" to migrating,
or if something that would be highly variable? 
Again, a brief comment in bug
434575 would be the best place
to put these, so easier to find in future. 

Thanks again, and my personal apologies
for the churn,

Unannounced Changes Have Unforeseen        Consequences

Hi,

It was brought to my attention that 
org.eclipse.jface.viewers.TableTreeViewer has been deleted.  Yes,
I know 
it's deprecated, but nevertheless it was once API before being 
deprecated so deleting it is a breaking change.  I don't recall there
being an announcement to begin deleting arbitrary deprecated API.

In any case, I can't necessarily commit to making the necessary 
changes.  As such I can't commit to contributing EMF Core to Neon.

I would suggest reconsidering the strategy of breaking APIs and most 
certainly suggest any such actions ought to be announced and discussed
before such actions are taken.

Regards,
Ed
