Eike, as much as I like to be accommodating, this doesn't sound like a 
respin everything candidate. Is there a way to make this available as a 
feature patch from your own project repo, so your users could get it 
immediately upon 6/26 release? 

Does this impact any/many EPP packages? If so, which ones, and what are 
"effects". How many users (use-cases) would be effected? 

>From my quick skim read of the bug, it sounds like a performance 
regression that would not impact too many users ... but, I'm willing to 
listen to other arguments for why it should be considered "blocking" and 
why it might justify repining everything. 

Thanks for bringing it to our attention, in either case.

repository is   complete

Hi All,

It's totally embarrassing but a user's have just reported that I made a 
fatal typo in a last minute fix. I fear we can't 
ship with this typo in place. Is there any chance to get a contribution 
into Kepler with a fix to this fix?

The bug that was found late and that I fixed two days ago is:

                 410409: CDOClientIndications can arrive before session is 
fully active
                 https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=410409

Instead of checking for LifecycleState.ACTIVATING I wrote DEACTIVATING in 
a moment of pressure and unconciousness:

     if (session.getLifecycleState() == LifecycleState.ACTIVATING)
     {
       LifecycleUtil.waitForActive(session, 10000L);
     }

That not only doesn't fix the (timing-related, hard to test) original 
problem, worse, it tends to add 10 second delays 
in other situations. I already wondered why our tests took so much longer 
than usual, but I blamed the build server load 
during the last contribution opportunities ;-(

I'm very sorry for the inconvenience that I might cause!!!!!!!!

Cheers
/Eike
