3.2 release of the ATL project, of the Eclipse M2M Project.
</div><h2><a name="release_deliverables">Release Deliverables</a></h2><p>
The release deliverables have the same form as is found in most
Eclipse projects, namely:
<ul>
<li>ATL source code release, available as versions tagged
"R3_2" in the project's CVS repository.</li>
<li>M2M ATL SDK (includes runtime and tooling components,
with sources and documentation) (downloadable and update site).
</li>
<li>M2M ATL runtime binary distribution (downloadable and
update site).</li>
<li>M2M ATL examples (downloadable and update site).
</li>
<li>M2T ATL tests (downloadable and update site).</li>
</ul>
</p><p><a href="#toc">Table of Contents</a></p><h2><a name="release_milestones">Release Milestones</a></h2><div>
Release milestones occur at roughly 6 week intervals
and follow the Platform release milestone by the Indigo-established +2 delta interval.
The final ATL 3.2 release will available simultaneously
with the 3.7 release of the Platform and all the other Helios projects.

ATL will produce maintenance releases to align with the Helios Service Releases
which includes the Eclipse Platform's 3.6.1 and 3.6.2 releases.
ATL may produce additional interim maintenance releases.
Maintenance releases will only be published if they contain new fixes.
Friday, September 24, 2010 - ATL 3.1.1 maintenance release for Helios Service Release 1.
Friday, February 25, 2011 - ATL 3.1.2 maintenance release for Helios Service Release 2.
Version numbers are subject to change should there be be any additional maintenance releases.
</div><p><a href="#toc">Table of Contents</a></p><h2><a name="target_environments">Target Environments</a></h2><div>
In order to remain current, each Eclipse release targets
reasonably
current versions of the underlying operating environments.
The ATL
project depends upon on the Platform and other projects, which
are
mostly "pure" Java. The 3.5 release of the Eclipse Platform
Project
is written and compiled against version 1.4 of the Java
Platform
APIs, and targeted to run on version 1.4 of the Java Runtime
Environment, Standard Edition. ATL will target the same Java version
as the platform.
</div><h3>Internationalization</h3>
<div>
The Eclipse Platform is designed as the basis for
internationalized
products. The user interface elements provided by
the Eclipse SDK
components, including dialogs and error messages, are
externalized.
The English strings are provided as the default
resource bundles. As
a result, the ATL project will provide English
strings in its
default bundles and be localized to a subset of those
locales
offered by the Platform. This plan will be updated to
indicate which
locales will be provided and the time frame for
availability.
