+Last revised 16:00 ET April 24, 2013.   (<img src="http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/development/new.gif" alt="(new)" border="0" height="12" width="12" /> 
+marks interesting changes since the previous draft of 
+<a href="http://www.eclipse.org/projects/project-plan.php?planurl=http://www.eclipse.org/equinox/planning/equinox_kepler_plan.xml">July 26, 2012</a>.)
+</p>
+<p><i>Please send comments about this plan to the</i> <a href="mailto:equinox-dev@eclipse.org">equinox-dev@eclipse.org</a> <i>developer
+  mailing list.</i>
+</p>
+<p>The goal of the Equinox project is to be a first class OSGi community and foster the vision of Eclipse
+  Runtime technologies. As part of this, it is responsible for developing and delivering the OSGi
+  framework implementation used for all of Eclipse.  Equinox is also responsible for developing
+  other core runtime technologies such as p2, extension registry, security and core server-side
+  runtime components.
+</p>
+<p>This document lays out the feature and API set for the next feature release
+  of Equinox after 3.8, designated release 3.9 and code-named Kepler.
+</p>
+
+<p>Plans do not materialize out of nowhere, nor are they entirely static. To
+  ensure the planning process is transparent and open to the entire Eclipse community,
+  we (the Eclipse compontent leads) post plans in an embryonic form and revise them
+  throughout the release cycle. </p>
+<p>The first part of the plan deals with the important matters of release deliverables,
+  release milestones, target operating environments, and release-to-release compatibility.
+  These are all things that need to be clear for any release, even if no features
+  were to change. </p>
+<p>The remainder of the plan consists of plan items for all of the sub-projects
+  under the Equinox Project. Each plan item covers a feature or API
+  that is to be added to the Equinox Project deliverables, or some aspect of
+  the Equinox Project that is to be improved. Each plan item has its own entry
+  in the Eclipse bugzilla database, with a title and a concise summary (usually
+  a single paragraph) that explains the work item at a suitably high enough level
+  so that everyone can readily understand what the work item is without having
+  to understand the nitty-gritty detail. </p>
+<p>Not all plan items represent the same amount of work; some may be quite large,
+  others, quite small. Some plan items may involve work that is localized to
+  a single component; others may involve coordinated changes to several components;
+  other may pervade the entire SDK. Although some plan items are for work that
+  is more pressing than others, the plan items appear in no particular order. </p>
+<p>With the previous release as the starting point, this is the plan for how
+  we will enhance and improve it. Fixing bugs, improving test coverage, documentation,
+  examples, performance tuning, usability, etc. are considered routine ongoing
+  maintenance activities and are not included in this plan unless they would
+  also involve a significant change to the API or feature set, or involve a significant
+  amount of work. The intent of the plan is to account for all interesting feature
+  work. </p>
+<p>The current status of each plan item is noted: </p>
+<ul>
+  <li><b>Committed</b> plan item - A committed plan item is one that we have
+    decided to address for the release.</li>
+  <li><b>Proposed</b> plan item - A proposed plan item is one that we are considering
+    addressing for the release. Although we are actively investigating it, we
+    are not yet in a position to commit to it, or to say that we won't be able
+    to address it. After due consideration, a proposal will either be committed
+    or deferred.</li>
+  <li><b>Deferred</b> plan item - A reasonable proposal that will not make it
+    in to this release for some reason is marked as deferred with a brief note
+    as to why it was deferred. Deferred plan items may resurface as committed
+    plan items at a later point.</li>

+
+<p:target_environments>
+
+<div>
+<p>In order to remain current, each Equinox Project release targets reasonably current
+  operating environments.</p>
+<p>Most of Equinox is &quot;pure&quot; Java code and has no direct dependence
+  on the underlying operating system. The chief dependence is therefore on the
+  Java Platform itself. Portions are targeted to specific classes of operating
+  environments, requiring their source code to only reference facilities available
+  in particular class libraries (e.g. J2ME Foundation 1.1, J2SE 1.4, Java 5, etc).</p>
+<p>In general, the Kepler release of the Equinox Project is developed on a mix
+  of Java SE 5 and Java SE 6 VMs. As such, the Eclipse SDK as a whole
+  is targeted at all modern, desktop Java VMs. Most functionality is available for
+  Java SE 5 level development everywhere, and extended development capabilities are made
+  available on the VMs that support them.</p>
+<p><a href="#Appendix1">Appendix 1</a> contains a table that indicates the class
+  library level required for each bundle.</p>
+<p>There are many different implementations of the Java Platform running atop
+  a variety of operating systems. We focus our testing on a handful of
+  popular combinations of operating system and Java Platform; these are our <em>reference
+  platforms</em>. Eclipse undoubtedly runs fine in many operating environments
+  beyond the reference platforms we test. However, since we do not systematically test
+  them we cannot vouch for them. Problems encountered when running Eclipse on a
+  non-reference platform that cannot be recreated on any reference platform will
+  be given lower priority than problems with running Eclipse on a reference platform.</p>
+<p>Equinox Kepler is tested and validated on the following reference platforms
+  (this list is updated over the course of the release cycle):</p>

+<h3>Compatibility of Release 3.9 with 3.8</h3>
+<p>Equinox Kepler will be compatible with Equinox 3.8 (Juno) (and all earlier 3.x versions).</p>
+
+<p><strong>API Contract Compatibility:</strong> Equinox Kepler will be upwards
+  contract-compatible with Equinox Juno except in those areas noted in the
+  <a href="http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/porting/eclipse_3_7_porting_guide.html" target="_top">
+    <em>Eclipse 4.2 Plug-in Migration Guide</em>
+  </a>. Programs that use affected APIs and extension points will need to be ported
+  to Equinox Kepler APIs. Downward contract compatibility
+  is not supported. There is no guarantee that compliance with Equinox Kepler
+  APIs would ensure compliance with Equinox Juno (3.8) APIs. Refer to
+  <a href="http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Evolving_Java-based_APIs">
+    <em>Evolving Java-based APIs</em>
+  </a> for a discussion of the kinds of API changes that maintain contract compatibility.</p>
+  
+<p><strong>Binary (plug-in) Compatibility:</strong> Equinox Kepler will be upwards
+  binary-compatible with Equinox Juno (3.8) except in those areas noted in the
+  <a href="http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/porting/eclipse_3_7_porting_guide.html" target="_top">
+    <em>Eclipse 4.2 Plug-in Migration Guide</em>
+  </a>. Downward plug-in compatibility is not supported. Plug-ins for Equinox
+  3.9 will not be usable in Equinox 3.8. Refer to
+  <a href="http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Evolving_Java-based_APIs">
+    <em>Evolving Java-based APIs</em>
+  </a> for a discussion of the kinds of API changes that maintain binary compatibility.</p>
+  
+<p><strong>Source Compatibility:</strong> Equinox Kepler will be upwards source-compatible
+  with Equinox Juno (3.8) except in the areas noted in the
+  <a href="http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/porting/eclipse_4_3_porting_guide.html" target="_top">
+    <em>Eclipse 4.3 Plug-in Migration Guide</em>
+  </a>. This means that source files written
+  to use Equinox Juno (3.8) APIs might successfully compile and run against Equinox
+  Kepler APIs, although this is not guaranteed. Downward source compatibility
+  is not supported. If source files use new Equinox APIs, they will not be
+  usable with an earlier version of Equinox. </p>
+  
+<p><strong>Non-compliant usage of API's</strong>: All non-API methods and classes,
+  and certainly everything in a package with &quot;internal&quot; in its name or 
+  exported with the x-internal directive,
+  are considered implementation details which may vary between operating environment
+  and are subject to change without notice. Client plug-ins that directly depend
+  on anything other than what is specified in the Equinox API are inherently
+  unsupportable and receive no guarantees about compatibility within a single
+  release much less with earlier releases. Refer to
+  <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-API%20use/eclipse-api-usage-rules.html">
+    <em>How to Use the Eclipse API</em>
