The Eclipse Foundation Development Process (EDP) describes a release as anything that is distributed for adoption outside of the committers of a project (effectively, if you stamp something with a version number and tell the general audience to download it, it’s a release). Appropriately labeled nightly, integration, and milestone builds are not considered releases.
Further, the EDP describes a requirement for all Eclipse projects to engage in a review prior to creating a release.
