Going forward, p2 would like to have its own build and provide the SDK build with binaries instead of having the SDK build p2 itself. This would allow for p2 to move at a different pace (more frequent builds, different release schedule, etc.) and would also reduce the time of the SDK build.
This shouldn't be too difficult - we do this already for parts of the 4.1 SDK build. Isn't it just a matter of using the p2 fetch factory to fetch binary bundles from a repo rather than source?
Yes. We would also have to setup a p2 build to generate the repo that the SDK would consume. This isn't difficult to do.
This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant. If the bug is still relevant, please remove the "stalebug" whiteboard tag.
Plans for separate releng are gone now.
