For each WTP release, there are a few bookkeeping tasks unrelated to planning, development, and building, that also need tending to.
They should be recorded here so they're not forgotten. This is intended as a living document.
Contents
Tasks for Major and Minor Releases
- The release should be tagged in all non-releng repositories.
- Maintenance branch may created for future adopter patch builds. Main development will continue in master for the next quarterly simultaneous release.
- A New Help for Old Friends page created, if required
- June releases typically line up for our mandatory Release Review, and necessitate prepared documentation
Tasks for All Releases (including Service Releases)
Deliverables
- March/September releases coincide with a new Java version: facets need updating
- Copy last RCx to R using WTP Publish job
- R-build GA'd on http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/downloads/, and email sent out declaring it
- EPP packages tested, signed-off on, and +1 sent to epp-dev mailing list
- Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers: Chuck and Nitin (Java EE Smoke and also manual checks to general layout, preferences etc for changes from integrated features like m2e, oomph etc..)
- Composite site updated via WTP Publish Repo job. Repeat for latest 20xx-yy site
- Marketplace listings created/updated for these 3 listings (contact Nitin D. if you want edit privileges, but try to keep the mandatory features to a minimum)
- WTP_FAQ installation instructions updated (add versions/numbers/update sites)
- IRC_FAQ updated
Web site updates
- Make sure packages/org.eclipse.epp.package.jee.feature/epp.website.xml in ssh://{USER}@git.eclipse.org:29418/epp/org.eclipse.epp.packages points to the correct New and Noteworthy
-
/common.php
(linking to Java EE package page and release train update site) -

- Add new versions / remove old versions from: /home/data/httpd/download.eclipse.org/webtools/downloads/buildbranches.php
- Move old releases from download.eclipse.org to archive.eclipse.org. If you don't have permission, open a bug.

- Clean out old Jenkins workspaces / saved builds, old builds from http://build.eclipse.org/webtools/committers/, and old builds from http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/downloads/drops/
- Use WTP-Disk-Cleanup job

Project Lead Tasks
Each project lead or a designated Committer should perform these tasks for every release.
- Repositories tagged for the release
- Bugs triaged/retargeted out of the release
- Babel repo/branch set/updated for release
- Version value created in Bugzilla
- Project metadata at https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/webtools updated for the release version
- Project metadata at https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/webtools created for the next release, with the New and Noteworthy URL populated
SCM Tagging script
1. Check out the webtools.releng.aggregator project & make sure you're up to date in all the submodules. Commit any updates.
2. Check out all the projects listed below, then:
TAG=R3_19 for d in */; do echo $d; cd $d; git pull origin master; git tag ${TAG}; git push origin ${TAG}; cd ..; echo; done
Projects to tag include:
webtools.releng.aggregator/ webtools.releng/ webtools.common/ webtools.dali/ webtools.javaee/ webtools.jsdt/ webtools.jsf/ webtools.servertools/ webtools.sourceediting/ webtools.webservices/
Elsewhere
- Remind Nitin to update the IRC channel topic to reflect the new release
- Make sure Eclipse/Installation reflects the current/new Eclipse Project release
- Make sure SimRel points to the current or next release
