1.5RC5a
  Mon, 19 Jun 2006 -- 20:02 (UTC) 

Is the build we plan to declare at noon on Tuesday, unless
anyone finds blocking or criticial regressions and vetos the declaration.


Well, almost .. as I was typing this, GEF just declared
their RC5, so I will rebuild to pick that up, but would not expect any
impact on us. 

So, "must test" teams, please report, Tuesday
noon at the latest, please. 
I think any testing you've been doing on the RC5 from
last week is fine to use for your judgement, though a quick sanity check
on RC5a wouldn't hurt. 


The following bugs have been fixed in
RC5a vs. the RC5 produced last week. 

 105510
nor P2 jst.jsp [hotbug] JSP taglib validation for bad taglib prefix
 140093
nor P2 releng Update about.html files 
 147757
nor P1 wst.html False validation warnings when editing HTML 
 134047
nor P2 wst.sse A instance of StructuredTextEditor is leaked when editor
...
