Re: [wtp-releng] Does anyone need a New and Noteworthy for M7 content?

In that case, let us follow the usual format.  If nothing else, it'll keep it simple when we roll the milestone pages together for our release pages.

The templates for M7 are in the web site repository and you can browse the live version at http://www.eclipse.org/webtools/development/news/3.2M7/.  As usual, if a project doesn't have anything written up when I go to update our news feed on the 4th,  I'll just comment out their link to it from the overview page. I know it's terribly short notice, but I'd like to have it completed by the end of the 3rd.

To set your workspace up to edit your project's contents manually, connect to the web site CVS repository at :extssh:dev.eclipse.org:/cvsroot/org.eclipse and either check out the entire contents of the /www/webtools folder, or just /www/webtools/development/news/3.2M7 if you only want to work on this milestone's files.

Don't forget that API additions or changes, significant version number updates, and especially migration information should be recorded in "New Help for Old Friends V" (http://wiki.eclipse.org/New_Help_for_Old_Friends_V ).  It never hurts to advertise your new APIs there since it's not what the "New and Noteworthy" is for--this is for our users.  As always, if there are any questions or concerns, problems with finding the time to do it or final wording to use, or questions about changing the page organization, feel free to let me know through the mailing list, or directly if needed.

There should be no new features from this point forward in keeping with our Ramp Down Plan (http://wiki.eclipse.org/WTP_3.2_Ramp_down_Plan_for_Helios).  If something does get added, however, expect a draft of the collected N&N for this release fairly soon.
