Hi all,

As mentioned in another thread, m2e has an important bug with Platform 4.20
and SLF4J 2.0, causing build output to not appear in the console. This
issue is fixed in m2e and we can try releasing m2e 1.18.0 for SimRel
2021-06.
However there are a lot of other changes in m2e 1.18.0 compared to m2e
1.17.2 which is currently in SimRel (
https://github.com/eclipse-m2e/m2e-core/compare/1.17.2...master ); so this
is not necessarily a trivial change and can be risky. But m2e has an
extensive test suite which IMO makes it relatively safe to adopt m2e.
So 2 solutions:
* Either we keep m2e 1.17.2 in 2021-06 with the bug and just tell people
who face it to update to m2e 1.18.0, or
* we rush a m2e 1.18.0 in 2021-06, which can be a source of quirks in the
release process (especially since my work laptop just died so I'm not going
to be very efficient at it)

Cheers,
