>From the perspective of best user experience, we should update the Kepler

support, the test load would not be great.

Subject: Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Kepler SR3 for Java 8?

 

I had this thought, too, and it has been brought up in some discussions at
EclipseCon. It should be in our interest to make it as easy as possible for
our users to get the integration with Java 8.

*If* we decide for a SR3, what would be the deliverables? An update of the
packages only? Or only some packages? An update of the common Simultaneous
Release repository? Or something else? 

Thanks, Markus

It tend to agree with it. Java 8 is something big that we (as tool
developers in general) should encourage people to adopt. So it's IMO worth
making an exception to the release train and try to get a SR3 that supports
it Java 8 out-of-the-box.
