Re: [emft-dev] May service releases explicitely require other service releases?
Yes, I think you are right. It's not good practice and a fault on our side.
Service releases should (and are in the case of MWE2 and Xtext) of course be binary compatible.

Sorry for this,

Hi,

emf-dev and emft-dev are CC'ed because MWE2 is related.

I've just been asked by p2 to update some features with new versions from Helios SR1. Xtext 1.0.1 was among them, but I already know that I can not update to this Xtext version (has caused me 2 days to find out why, but that's another story). No problem so far, I just unchecked Xtext.

But then it turned out that the remaining update request could not be completed because MWE2 explicitely requires a service release version of Xtext:

    org.eclipse.xtext;bundle-version="1.0.1"

I wonder if that should generally be considered bad for service releases. What do you think?
