Many thanks to the committers for fixing the few compile errors when 
building against 4.0 this week. Such as, see 
http://build.eclipse.org/webtools/committers/wtpe4-R3.3.0-I/20100812113302/I-3.3.0-20100812113302/

And while we haven't done unit tests or full smoke tests yet, we do have 
some success to report, and 
follow up from our status meeting today. 

As mentioned in meeting, Carl was able to get through the JEE smoke test 
scenarios, except for some 
the editors not opening automatically when they should (such as when 
creating a dynamic web project). 
We think this is the same bug reported and being tracked in bug 318034
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=318034

Valentin got to the bottom of his start-up problem by finding this known 
issue with 
proxy authentication and secure storage and the work around in bug 320932 
worked for him.

Just wanted to let everyone know it's worth trying out,  with the 
limitations above. While I'm sure there will be other compatibility bugs 
found, 
its good to know the basics are working. In theory, our 3.7 M1 build will 
be binary compatible with the Eclipse 4.0 Platform
(thanks to those quick compile-time fixes) but not sure anyone has tried 
that yet. 

Much thanks to you early adopters that got this going!
