RCP probably includes the sources and multi-platform support, making it
bigger. If you are going to develop Eclipse plug-ins or RCP
applications, you'll definitely want to start with that package. You can
easily add the WTP stuff later using Help > Software Updates.
If, on the other hand, you're only going to do JEE development (not
Eclipse plug-ins or RCP), then that is the best package to get.
n either case, adding more features later is always an option.
Hope this helps,
Eric
