Description David Carver

With the foundation standardizing on Maven and Tycho as the Common Build Infrastructure, after the Juno release, it would be nice to look at using Maven and Tycho to build Webtools related projects.   

This would greatly help the community as there would be one common way to build, and it wouldn't be dependent on specific environments.

I've had some good initial success early on for both XML, SSE, CSS, XSL, and XPath related projects, but all these builds were unofficial.  It may also help with making it easier to help out with releng tasks going forward.

Any help would be appreciated.  But no matter what, we will be converting to Git right after Juno as the first step.

Once some git repos are out there, I can contribute patches via Gerrit (yeah, I should open a bug report for that as well).

Is there a bug open for discussion around migration to Git for WTP yet?

My observation is that this looks either mostly done or done.

AFAICT, the releng aggregator builds have Maven/Tycho POMs that are being invoked by Hudson build scripts that are completing with a success status.

Are these producing official builds at this point in time?

Yes, the move to CBI should have satisfied this requirement.
