Re: Continue Eclipse Freemarker DLTK?

Hey Angelo,

Do you think you could rehost your DLTK plugins onto github?  That will
make it easier to collaborate.  Then I can install DLTK dependencies in my
environment and try to import them in.

Which part of the features of the current DLTK editor require FM3.0 and
which can work on 2.3?
