2019-03M2 is on February 8/2019.

The Eclipse Planning Council asks that every participating project have a
committer "touch" their project's aggrcon file
<https://git.eclipse.org/c/simrel/org.eclipse.simrel.build.git/> as a means
of letting us know that they're paying attention (even if there is no
change). If you're a representative for your project, please do this before
the milestone 2 deadline. AFAICT, 49 aggrcon files have not been updated in
2019.

If your project is contributing new content to the simultaneous release,
then you need to create a release record before the milestone 2 date.

If you're including a major or minor release, you *may* require a release
review. Due to changes that we made to the EDP late last year, projects
that have engaged in a release review since March 20/2018 may make a
release without an additional review (more generally, *your project may
issue releases for an entire year following either a successful Release
Review or one of the new Progress Reviews*). There's more in the new EDP
<https://www.eclipse.org/projects/dev_process/#6_4_Releases>.

Please do create the release record (even if you don't require a review) as
we use these to drive the creation of metrics related to the simultaneous
release. This is especially true for projects that include subprojects in
their releases (e.g. Eclipse Project and Eclipse Web Tools).

Note that even if your project does not require a review, you are required
to follow the IP Policy and engage in the IP Due Diligence Process. I am
periodically scanning the simultaneous release repository to ensure that we
don't include IP that has not been properly vetted. Let me know if you need
any assistance in this area.

Four projects have dropped out starting with this release.

   - Eclipse MoDisco;
   - Eclipse EMF Facet;
   - EclipseLink; and
   - Eclipse Yasson

Please let the group know if your project should be added to this list.
Projects that have withdrawn from the simultaneous release must please also
remove their aggrcon files from the repository.

I'm a little concerned that we have a handful of understaffed projects that
may not be paying attention. If your project is going to have trouble
meeting testing requirements or otherwise maintaining the expected quality
standard, please let us know.

The opt-in deadline has passed for *new* projects joining this release. Any
projects that want to jump on will need to have their PMC petition the
Eclipse Planning Council. This does not apply to projects that participated
in the previous release. Let me know if you need assistance.

Thanks,

Wayne
