Re: Eclipse 3.4 Released

["Dean, Robert" <rdean@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jazz is more geared towards quality and project management than software
production.  It doesn't replace the Rational developer tools.  It 
complements them with collaboration, issue tracking, source code 
management, and more.  The Rational product for this is IBM Rational 
Team Concert.  

There will be an i version, and the page for the "future beta" says it 
will be going beta later this summer.  Interestingly, the page says 
the beta will require RDi 7.5, which may be a clue to the 7.5 release
timeframe or just a coincidence.

Hi,
What is all this noise about Jazz then. I thought that I read something 
about Rational moving everything to Jazz?
