Eclipse Europa is the annual release of Eclipse projects. Like last
year’s Callisto release, the Europa release is a coordinated release of
different Eclipse project teams. This year, the annual release includes
21 projects.
By releasing these projects at the same time, the goal is to eliminate
uncertainty about version compatibility and make it easier to
incorporate multiple projects into your environment.
While Europa is about the simultaneous release of twenty one projects,
it 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.
