I am wondering why you guys requested a new name for the newsgroup?
"Platform" is a project in the Eclipse top-level project, and so is "PDE" -
shouldn't the newsgroups be siblings too?

Confused,
Boris

Actually, you make a good point Boris... but I don't think asking them
to change back would do any good at the moment.
