Re: Eclipse Plugin Maintaineer?
Hi Ben
I've been silently hoping the eclipse threads would wake up again, glad to see some activity. I should have posted myself. But I want you to know the eclipse support is highly valued, at least by our team.

However, we have not been able to make it work properly since the changes were made for 2006 FRC. What you did is very attractive - the ability to simply switch among multiple compile targets. We have some code which can run on any of the RCs since 2004, and being able to build for any target is really useful.

So - if you or somebody is willing to pull together a start-to-finish instruction for setting up with eclipse, including access to the newest plugin, I'd like to try to get set up again. For the moment, we're back on MPLAB, and don't like it very much.

Thanks
Bill
