This makes sense David. I will enable the final Juno bits for Kepler M1 
for now.

Cheers...
Anthony

I agree with Anthony, probably not worth changing features, just to be in 
M1, and think I'll say there will be a blanket exception to anyone who can 
not participate due to the lack of these prereqs. It'd be unfortunate 
though, since very few EPP packages could be built without many of these 
fundamental projects.   

However, Anthony, I just realized an alternative way to view things. If 
things do "fall apart in a few months and then have to remove projects 
from Kepler again" then I'm sure all (or most) current consumers would 
simply use your previous, Juno release even if you decided these projects 
would not participate in Kepler. 

So, is there really any harm in enabling now? That way people could 
continue to use your Juno release as a prereq in an easy way, and if it 
turns out you can not build or support these projects in Kepler, you could 
withdraw at a later time (say before M4), and at that point, consumers 
would have to change their features/repos to consume the Juno release of 
these features, similar to how they'd consume an Orbit third party 
dependency.   

I think that way we could have your cake and eat it too :) That is, you 
have given "warning" that there's risk for these projects, but for now 
(for a milestone or two?) consumers could still use the Juno release and 
not hold up their own work. 

Make sense?

Hi again, 

To be clear, the original email threads were about Kepler M1 and this 
email was intended as a definite not enable for Kepler M1. 

Lets see where we are at for M2 before we start changing features. 

Cheers...
Anthony

Hi Anthony, 

That comes rather surprising to me. 

It will force Graphiti and presumably a bunch of other projects to include 
their usages from EMF Transaction/ Validation and GMF into their own 
features. Not really lucky about that... 

I will disable the Graphiti contribution to Kepler again since I will not 
be able to do that change before monday and do not want to block the 
aggregation.

Hi Team, 

I received a bunch of emails about several projects I own on the 
simultaneous release train, none of which are enabled for Kepler. EMF 
Validation is the lowest dependency that seems to affect the most 
projects, GMF Notation, GMF Runtime and EMF Transaction are also on the 
list. 

These projects need to move to a new build and Git. Moving to a new build 
means moving to the CBI / long term support build. The CBI is making good 
progress but nothing is really documented yet. 

I have made the decision that I am not enabling these projects for Kepler 
until the Git migration and the new build is complete. I do not want to 
enable now, have things fall apart in a few months and then have to remove 
projects from Kepler again. 

Sorry for the inconvenience. 

Cheers...
Anthony
