Dear Technology PMC,

the current Oxygen.2 RC4 packages contain m2e 1.8.1 from Oxygen.1, instead
of the 1.8.2 release which was contributed in Oxygen.1a.

1.8.2 contains a number of fixes related to Java 9 support[1] and shipping
1.8.1 instead would be a serious regression from a usability perspective.

Can we please bring this forward to the Planning Council to request a
respin of the Oxygen.2 release? It's unclear to me if I should open a BZ
for this request, let me know and I'll make it happen if needed.

Thanks in advance,

Fred
