1.2.2 has waited a long time... I'd like to suggest leaving it broken in 
this release. (We're not losing any functionality for 98% of users as I 
understand it.)

Agreed.  Although I'm afraid I won't be much help... I probably won't be 
back to committing for another ten or twelve months.

Yep... again, see my previous answer.

I also agree... I've not read the link there yet, but moving on would be 
a good idea.

Yep... and setup processes for notifying on branching etc.

That might be interesting for NetBSD... on account of the fact that 
(AFAIK) pkgsrc is still at Ecplise 3.1.  I'd love to see NetBSD tracking 
Eclipse, but don't know what the odds are.  Packaging for FreeBSD is no 
longer an issue as the use of Eclipse plugins in ports has been somewhat 
deprecated.  (Based on the logic of why package what would from an 
Update site.)

I think we all owe incastrix a beer... these days he *is* PHPEclipse!

Cheers,

Mike.
