Hi Andrew. This sound really like a good plan. I use Eclipse now as a
daily basis for j2ee development work.
What sucks most ist not how Eclipse is included into the major
distributions, its the java runtime or development kit.
As now Sun has been coming forward with plans to switch java over to the
gpl are there any community plans for Fedora to include Suns Java into
the Desktop?
Why has noone ever asked Sun for a binary distribution License and
created two groups for yum which the user is up to decide wether he can
live with gcj and classpath or a traditional jdk environment?

I am happy to see that this gets adressed now. Keep going! :)
