<h2>Goal</h2>
<p>The goal of the Callisto Simultaneous Release is to release ten major Eclipse
projects at the same time.
We are doing this simultaneous release to support the needs of the ecosystem
members who integrate Eclipse frameworks into their own software and products.
While those product producers naturally accept the ultimate responsibility for their
customers' experiences, Callisto's goal is to eliminate uncertainity about
project version numbers, and thus to allow ecosystem members to start their
own integration, cross-project, and cross-product testing efforts earlier.
Callisto is about improving the productivity of
the developers working on top of Eclipse frameworks by providing a more
transparent and predictable development cycle; Callisto is about developers
helping developers serve the whole Eclipse community.</p>
<p><em>While Callisto is about the simultaneous release of ten projects, it is
is not a unification of the projects - each project remains a
separate open source project operating with its own project leadership,
its own committers, and its own project plan.</em></p>
<h2>Status of Projects Included In The Release</h2>
<h3>Summary</h3>
<p>The Callisto Simultaneous Release projects are working on testing their M5 milestones
and on bug fixes for their RC0 release candidates.</p>

<h2><a name="Installing">Downloading and Using The Callisto Simultaneous Release</a></h2>
<ol>
<li>Download and install the <a href="http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/">appropriate Platform Runtime Binary</a>
("3.2 Stream Stable Builds" > "3.2M5a" > "Platform Runtime Binary" > choose your OS). </li>
<li>Use the update manager with the pre-installed <a href="http://download.eclipse.org/callisto/releases">Callisto update site</a>.<br/>
<em>(The update site infrastructure is described on <a href="http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Callisto_Coordinated_Update_Sites">this wiki page</a>).</em> </li>
<li>Download any or all Callisto Feature(s) using the Update Manager. </li>
<li>Use and Enjoy.</li>
</ol>
<p>Tutorials and documentation to help you get started with each of the Callisto projects:
<ul>
<?php foreach( $infos as $info ) {
$url = $info->getting_started_url(); ?>
<li>
<?php if( isset($url) ) { ?>
<a href="<?= $url ?>">Get started with <?= $info->get_name() ?></a>
<?php } else { ?>
<em><?= $info->get_name() ?> - no getting started information</em>

</ul>
<h2>Great Bugs Contest</h2>
<p>We are having a contest for great Callisto bug reports and we're giving away
T-shirts, iPods, and an Eclipse-brand mountain bike. Read about what consistitutes
a <a href="/projects/callisto-files/callisto-bug-contest.php">great Callisto bug report</a> and
<a href="/projects/callisto-files/callisto-bug-contest.php">the simple contest guidelines/rules</a>.
The goal, of course, is to encourage the larger community to find Callisto bugs - bugs
that are at the intersection and integration of projects.</p>

<h2>Requirements</h2>
<p>Projects that are part of Callisto agree to abide by the following requirements:
<ol>
<li>The projects in the Callisto Simultaneous Release <b>must</b> work together. </li>
<li>All Callisto projects <em>should</em> have jar'ed plug-ins because this is good Eclipse citizenship.</li>
<li>All Callisto projects <em>should</em> use Eclipse message bundles, not Java bundles because this is a good Eclipse citizenship.</li>
<li>All Callisto projects <b>must</b> use ICU4J by RC0.</li>
<li>All Callisto projects <b>must</b> use capabilities.</li>
<li>All Callisto projects <b>must</b> have their own functional project update site - the Callisto site
will reference these sites, not replace them.</li>
<li>All Callisto projects <b>must</b> use <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/platform-core/documents/plugin-versioning.html">4-part version numbers</a> by M5.</li>
</ol>
</p>

<p>The Council has established the <a href="https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/cross-project-issues-dev">cross-project-issues-dev@eclipse.org</a>
mailing list for, obviously, any cross project issues that arise.</p>
<h2>Humor</h2>
<p>From <a href="http://www.nineplanets.org/callisto.html">The Ten Planets</a>: <em>Callisto seems to have
little internal structure; however there are signs
from recent Galileo data that the interior materials have settled
partially, with the percentage of rock increasing toward the center.</em> </p>
<h2>How It Works</h2>
<p>The <em>Summary</em> sections of this page are produced from the
<code>&lt;summary paragraph-url="..."&gt;</code> information of the
<a href="/projects/dev_process/project-status-infrastructure.php">project-info.xml file of the
project status information</a>.
The <em>Downloading and Using</em> sections of this page are
produced from the <code>&lt;getting-started url="..."&gt;</code> information
of that same project-info.xml file.
