<li>Important Bug Fixes, Enhancements and API changes:<ul>
<li>API: Several <b>SystemMessages and Shared Resource Strings</b> have been moved
from RSEUIPlugin to non-UI

<li>The <b>RAPI Library and Windows CE Subsystem</b> is available as a new downloadable
package in Incubation status. Thanks to Radoslav Gerganov for contributing this new

[<a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=195402">195402</a>].</li>
<li>API: RSE Early Startup and initialization behavior was improved. New API was added
for clients to register initialization handlers, or to query when initialization is
complete
<li>The optional <b>terminal input line is now resizeable</b>
[<a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=196447">196447</a>].</li>
<li>Performance: <b>Fewer plugins are now activated</b> when RSE starts up, because the
code that loads UI Adapters for the core services being used now loads those
adapters more lazily. For some extenders of RSE, this might mean that they need
to manually provide for loading their adapters when needed. For details, see the
final comments on bug
[<a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=218304">218304</a>].</li>
<li>API: <b>Streamed remote shell and Terminal access</b> is now supported by API.
<code>IAdaptable</code> is used to convert the old API into the new one. This
will enable RSE Terminal integrations, and provide better performance and
consumability. At the same time, the RSE Services was cleaned up and made
implement <code>IAdaptable</code> in general

extension point was added for clients to register code that needs to be executed
when the RSE Model is initialized. For clients, new API was added to

<li>API: <b>RSE SystemMessages</b> can now be constructed more easily with the new
<code><a href="http://dsdp.eclipse.org/help/latest/topic/org.eclipse.rse.doc.isv/reference/api/org/eclipse/rse/services/clientserver/messages/SimpleSystemMessage.html">SimpleSystemMessage</a></code> API.
Contents of these messages typically comes from
standard Eclipse NLS property files, rather than the RSE-specific monolithic
systemmessages.xml file. This accounts for better modularity and Platform integration;
systemmessages.xml file. At the same time, messages have been refactored into
non-UI plugins where possible, or the correct feature-specific plugins. This
accounts for better modularity and Platform integration;
but it also means breaking API changes where clients had re-used RSE messages
for themselves. Such re-use is now no longer supported

<li>API: <b>RSE MOVE and COPY Events</b> now also contain source and destination objects,

where many clients can share a single remote process to save resources

<li>API: The TerminalConnectorProxy class was removed, and replaced by
an <code>IAdaptable</code> mechanism to get a concrete connector instance. This
allows to programmatically create connections when a concrete connector instance
is known, and will be further enhanced in the future

<li><b>RSE UI Adapter Loading</b> has been made more lazy. This means, that contributors
of RSE subsystems, which provide core services and UI adapters in separate plugins, may
need to take care of loading their adapters at the right time. RSE does provide for
automatica adapter loading when a subsystem gets connected, but any adapter functionality
that's needed before that time needs to be provided by the client. For details, see the
final comments on bug
