Folks,

        First, congratulations on WTP 3.4.0!  We went live with the rest of
Juno at 9 am EDT today!  However, when I tried to piece together the final
release, I ran into an issue that I just found a workaround for, and so I
wanted to share it with other committers:
        Graphiti is not mirrored.  If a normal person tries to download the
Graphiti zip file today, they will have to wait hours to get it to
download, most likely resulting in a timeout.
        https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=376732 was recently
issued to allow committers to get around this issue.  The following has
been added to the download page of files that are *NOT* mirrored (like
Graphiti):

There are no mirrors for this file. Eclipse Committers can log in for
faster download.

So, I tried it.  I logged in, and the file was downloaded quickly!  (Before
I logged in, it said it would take more than 3 hours, with a transfer rate
around 200 bytes per second.)
        Simply put, I encourage all of you to download the Juno release- be
it the Java EE EPP or Eclipse 3.8 + the various pieces, and make sure that
everything is working as expected.  And once again, thanks for all of your
time and effort in making WTP 3.4.0 a successful release!

Sincerely,,

- Carl Anderson
WTP Build guy
