Doug, this is mostly because they haven't been through the vetting process required by officially released tools. This isn't just the CQ's but also ensuring that things like internationalization, accessibility and docs are up to spec...
There's also an advantage to leaving them in the incubator as long as
possible; it allows progress at a rate that's hard to match with 'released'
code (where breaking backwards compatibility is a no-no....). I think that
most of the tools have matured pretty well and would make viable Luna
candidates though.
If some of the tools aren't yet ready for prime time perhaps we could offer
them in the Eclipse Marketplace (as well as providing them in the current
update site) ?

Why aren?t e4 tools in the Eclipse SDK? Then this wouldn?t even be a
question :).

Paul created https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=425978 for the
upgrade

Yes. My push to master will fail the build for Kepler. Make a branch from
[1] to support Kepler maintenance?

Hi,
with the changes in
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=425879 the e4 tools
build would not be usable for Kepler.
Is that OK for everyone? I think in the past, Paul created one
last "stable" update site for older releases.
Best regards, Lars
