That's clear. It's EMF that's wrong. Looking at my 3.4.2 installation I see
lots of r34x_v... etc. Well done. You've got it right. Carry on.

I didn't intentionally change the doc feature. I hit the four features
that transitively include ocl.ecore.

I think that doc and examples features should now be 3.0.1 or 3.1.0 for the
two dev streams. If that requires the plugins to change then so be it.

For update site/download users there is no problem, but there is for us.
Because I now have an RC2 on my computer that isn't RC2 so I might use a
wrong
version by mistake. I can see that it's helpful to see '3.0.1RC2.zip' to
distinguish
it from Ixxxxxx.zip that could be anything. Perhaps use 3.0.1RC2.1 then
3.0.1RC2.2
etc for practices.
