<li>The <b>systemTypes</b> extension point now allows specifying the "icon", "iconLive"
and "enableOffline" properties either as a Property, or as an attribute. This change
allows for better integration with PDE. It is backward compatible with the format used
in RSE 1.0M4.</li>
<li>RSE now provides an <b>update site</b> at
<a href="http://download.eclipse.org/dsdp/tm/updates/">http://download.eclipse.org/dsdp/tm/updates/</a>.
We encourage users to update frequently, since we expect
RSE quality to improve more and more as we are approaching our 1.0 release.</li>
<li>Numerous bugs have been fixed, and we consider RSE safe now for
all kinds of data transfer, even if it's done in multiple background sessions
(except <b>FTP</b>, which will be enhanced as soon as the Jakarta Commons Net library
passes EMO legal review).</li>

<p>As per the Target Management
<a href="http://www.eclipse.org/dsdp/tm/development/plan.php#M4">plan</a>,
we reached API Freeze for RSE M4.</p>
<p>In fact we have reviewed and documented all relevant APIs, but just like most
Eclipse projects, we'll still reserve the right to make API improvements when
committers vote on them. Votes will be held publicly, such that everyone will
be informed in case the APIs should change.</p>
<p>Currently, we see the following areas for potential API changes:
<ul>
<li>Classes and Interfaces that are not meant for public use will be
moved to packages tagged as <tt>internal</tt>. This will apply
particularly to the "implementation" plugins for the ssh, ftp and
local subsystems (these do not define any new APIs anyways).</li>
<li>The <tt>IConnectorService</tt> interface may be slightly modified
in order to allow for better UI / Non-UI separation.</li>
<li>Some RSE Model classes may be moved from the UI plugin to the
non-UI core plugin.</li>
</ul>
If you want to start programming against RSE APIs now, best let us know
about your endeavours and keep yourself up-to-date.

The following M5 <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/dsdp/tm/development/plan.php#M5">plan</a>
deliverables did not make it into this build:
<ul>
<li>User Actions, and Import/Export were deferred with M3 already.
A new plan has been published with M3 already.</li>
<li>JUnit tests did not make it into the build due to pending IP legal review.
They are available from Bugzilla
<a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=149080">bug 149080</a>
instead. Due to the missing Unit Test Framework, automated tests could also
not yet be added to this build.</li>

<li>The <b>CDT Launch Integration Example</b> is not yet available as a
download. It is available from the
<a href="http://www.eclipse.org/dsdp/tm/development/index.php">
RSE CVS Repository</a> instead.</li>
2006-08-17 12:57:01 +00:00
<li>Jakarta Commons Net is not yet available for <b>FTP and Telnet</b> due to pending legal
review. We are confident to get these completed in August though.<ul>
<li>As a consequence, FTP connections are still not quite reliable.</li>
</ul></li>

The following critical or major bugs are currently known.
We'll strive to fix these as soon as possible.
