I decided to change the gradle.md to reflect adding it from maven central. I am not sure that one would ever want the goomph way of doing it as it requires 4 steps rather than two.

Question is how to make this stuff discoverable. I am hoping that
newcomers to January will just expect it to be published in Maven

that p2 isn't the only way.

Tracy and I (with some help from some summer students) have been
started some work on more getting started examples, e.g. using other
IDEs and build systems. Just need time to finish and promote it all.
