[cross-project-issues-dev] Declaring Neon M7 staging repository complete

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

The iron is cooling and the last Git commit
is the last one in "recent changes" so I am assuming all is done
for M7. 

While EPP packages are being created
and tested, be sure to sanity check "staging", which is (still)
at 

http://download.eclipse.org/releases/staging/

In parallel, this is a good time for
project leads to look through the most important "repo reports".
(There are too many violations for me to open bugs on them all). 

http://download.eclipse.org/releases/staging/buildInfo/reporeports/?d

Lots of unsigned jars: (the primary
"third segments" are andmore, eef, and  m2m.

A surprising number of features and
bundles missing legal files: (primarily in what are new this release: cft
and wst.jstd and wst.json)

Other reports are interesting and important
for professional looking software, but not as "blocking" as the
two reports above will become. 

Unless blocking problems are found soon,
this staging repo will be promoted to .../releases/neon on Friday morning,
approximately 10 AM (Eastern). 

As usual, I have temporarily paused
the Hudson jobs to avoid confusion (except for the Gerrit triggered one)
and will re-enable them the first of next week.

Thanks,
