Some of you may have noticed a lot of problems late today (yesterday) with 
me getting a "CLEAN_BUILD". I think I have the fundamental problem fixed 
and understood now (in short, dirty workspace). 

And now the next issue is that I tried to re-enable Java 8 unpack200. I 
believe that effected 5 or so projects (I hope you received the "unable to 
unpack <some> bundle" email?)  For most, it appeared to be just one 
bundle, but "WindowBuilder", I believe, still has a lot of "nested packed 
jars" which they'd been warned about for over a year?, I believe, so I 
think they won't "react" until they have to. Please react now. 

For the rest of you 4 or so projects, if you have yet to make your 
contribution, please be aware of what we want to accomplish (i.e. for 
unpack from Java 8 to work) and in some cases, might require some of you 
to include an eclipse.inf file, with "jarprocessor.exclude.pack=true". 
(See JarProcessor_Options). But, still sign the bundle. 

If some of you have already made your contributions, and you can not 
possibly fix things on Wednesday, please comment in Bug 463010 and, for my 
sanity of keeping things straight, be sure to state your project, bundles 
involved, which build system you use, and when you will be able to fix 
(or, if you will need any advice or help knowing how to fix ... but, all 3 
build systems that I know about recognize the 
"jarprocessor.exclude.pack=true" option, so that's usually easiest. 

If there are projects that "can not possibly fix" for M7, I'll explore 
some other options. 

Let me know if questions (preferably in the bugzilla). 

Thanks,
