Re: [january-dev] January version 2.0 release

[<Peter.Chang@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Some quick googling suggested that I removed the Travis change in https://github.com/eclipse/january/pull/83 or else we need to change the Tycho version (as Scott suggests too). My question (as Travis succeeds) is whether the build will be okay for Java 1.6 and 1.7.

Regards,
 Peter

Hi Jonah,

I think Friday 17th is fine for our Dawn release which will happen on the Monday following. We already build against the source code so switching to the RC and final product will be straightforward for MW.

Thanks,
 Peter

OK, I will create branches and we can have RC1.

Originally you had hoped for an early March release. What sort of release date should we be targetting? The release was scheduled for the 1/Mar/2017. I recommend we have an RC as soon as I can do it (next day or so), and if nothing comes up we can promote the RC to a release next Friday, 17/March.

I am not sure when I could find time for doing this. PRs solicited from Java 7/6 consumers?

Ian and/or Scott, you have both raised issues in the past with Java 8.
How are you building January targeting previous versions?
