[wtp-releng] WTP 2.0 M6 Respin @ 4:30 pm EST

[John Lanuti <jlanuti@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Good news, bad news, I guess.

Bad news?  We need to respin the
WTP 2.0 M6 build at 4:30 pm EST today to pick up some major doc changes
from Kate and to fix a problem with Axis packaging.  In case you are
not in the loop of this common.apache.logging issue (and I wish I wasn't)
we still have a problem.  We released changes for Axis to react to
logging plugin changes, but the Axis plugins are built using a separate
third party jar build which is then incorporated to the WTP build.  We
just missed this manual step.  So, we will be adressing that and the
doc issues.

The good news?  This should only
affect web services.  Every other component will not need to re-smoke
the build.  We'll just make sure web services does a fairly rigorous
smoke test to act as a sniff test for other components.  :-)

Teams should still plan on updating
the smoke test wiki ASAP with their thumbs up to declare M6.

Thanks,
