IVYDE - Proposal to increase minimum supported Eclipse version to 3.4
I propose to increase the minimum supported Eclipse version to 3.4 to
incorporate the Ivy Resolve Visualizer, subject of IVYDE-208 [1], into the
next release of IvyDE. The Resolve Visualizer has a dependency on GEF Zest
which requires 3.4+. The other alternative is to release the Visualizer as
a separate plugin, but I would prefer to keep it in one bundle.
If there is agreement here, I will pose the same question on ivy-user.
Thoughts?

I think our doc is up to date [1]. There are also the ASF release docs [2]
to get a global overview of how releases should be done.
And I am good with releasing soon.
Before releasing, we should review the opened bugs [3] and discuss what
need to be fixed before releasing.
I think that there is at least one blocker: documentation and screenshot
update with the new features introduced for IvyDE 2.1.0 [4]. I can take
time to write some.

PS: note that for now we tried to be compatible with Eclipse 3.2 [5].

I'd be happy to put together a release with a little guidance.

AW: IVYDE - Proposal to increase minimum supported Eclipse version to 3.4

A little warning seems to be good. "This is the last release for Eclipse 3.3. With the next version Eclipse 3.4 or newer is required."
This "3.3-Release" without the visualizer - and maybe this year?
Then after finishing the visualizer a release of the new version?
On the other hand: current version is 3.5 and the next is coming in a half year ... And I think IDEs on developer machines are changing faster than JDKs on production servers ... (that's why Ant is relying on JDK 1.4)

Or maybe we should increase the minimum Eclipse version to 3.4 after the next IvyDE release?
This way you can warn the users in the release notes that the next IvyDE version will be the last one supporting Eclipse 3.4
