Good point. Maybe for the OSGi bundle version we could use cr instead of rc: 2.0.0.cr1_$TIMESTAMP. Some projects use candidate release instead of release candidate, so this is pretty well accepted and understood. > > Another point, this one non blocker for the release, but it will be cool if > you can also release Ivy into the IvyDE update site simultaneously. > Ivy has been re-packaged for the update site with the last release of > IvyDE.

About documenting the process, I'd prefer if this could go on the Ivy release documentation page: http://ant.apache.org/ivy/history/trunk/dev/makerelease.html Xavier > > > Nicolas > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > -- Xavier Hanin - Independent Java Consultant http://xhab.blogspot.com/ http://ant.apache.org/ivy/ http://www.xoocode.org/
