All,
The Eclipse Foundation has been working on a new Eclipse plugin called
the Marketplace Client (MPC). MPC allows developers to directly
install into their Eclipse installation a product that has been listed
on the Eclipse Marketplace. The hope is that it make it much easier
for developers to find and install Eclipse products.
MPC is being developed as an open source project and is part of the
release train. An initial release was included in the Java IDE and
RCP M6 packages. The goal is to include it in all of the packages
for Helios (with the exception of the Classic). I would like to
suggest that MPC is automatically added, via Markus, to all of the
packages; similar to how we do UDC. This would make it easier and
consistent for all the package maintainers.
I appreciate this is too late for the M7 packages but I would like to
start doing this for RC1. Is this okay with everyone? MPC is an
important initiative of the Eclipse Foundation, so I am hoping to have
your support.
Thanks
Ian
