Why has the 72-hour vote period been set?

No critical reason, just a time frame on when I'll upload the driver to the distribution size if no -1's have been casted.


plugin-1.1-deployable-RC4.zip
plugin-1.1-updatesite-RC4.zip

What's the difference between them?

The first one just unzips into your ECLIPSE_HOME.  Once released, the second is the distribution that gets unzipped into the update manager site.  The packaging is a little different.  The second one can also be tested by unzipping anywhere on your filesystem and creating a "local" update site to it.  The site.xml is not really needed to test it.

Which one do I need to download
and what are the steps to test it out? Just unpack to $ECLIPSE_HOME
dir? Just downloaded Eclipse 3.2 and am ready to give it a whirl.

You can start with Eclipse 3.2 but will need to go to the update manager to add WTP and its requirements.  Or you can download the WTP-all in one package.  I'm working as-we speak on a eclipse-plugin FAQ for the wiki that will contain further detailed info.
