[kepler-dev] The suites vanilla-1.0 and vanilla-trunk are now deprecated.

[Christopher Brooks]

Hi David,
Is kepler-1.0 really the right version number for this branch?
Kepler 1.0 was released in May and had a very different structure
than what is currently checked into the tree as kepler-1.0.

I think users will find it confusing that there are two Kepler-1.0's
that have a really different directory layouts.  Perhaps the
branch should be kepler-1.1 or kepler-1.0.1?

To obtain Kepler-1.0.0, I did:
wget http://kepler-project.org/dist/Kepler-1.0.0/kepler-win-R-1.0.0.exe
./kepler-win-R-1.0.0.exe

Note that the directory is really different.
$ ls c:/Program\ Files/Kepler-1.0.0
Kepler.app       Uninstaller    cplibs.bat        installer 
lib               plugins
R                build          demos             kar 
libexpat.dll      setclasspath.bat
R-2.6.2-win.zip  configs        hsql-license.txt  kepler-console.bat 
licenses.txt      src
README.txt       copyright.txt  hsqlTool.bat      kepler.exe 
log4j.properties


To create the new version, I did:
  mkdir kepler
  cd kepler
  svn co 
https://code.kepler-project.org/code/kepler/turnk/modules/build-area
  ant change-to -Dsuite=kepler-1.0
  ant run

The directory looks like:
$ ls
README.txt  ant-tasks  build-settings  build.xml  classloader.txt 
installer  modules.txt  nmi


The build system seems to be working pretty well, it seems like it
would be appropriate for the branch name to reflect the fact that things
have changed.
