Ok.
Folks are contributing more and more ... this is good, but
it carries a logistic problem ... where to put those things.
It would be nice if the cdt base plugins remains language/tools agnostic.
GNU tools are special since they are so common. Having plugins on Sourceforge
can be a problem when doing the cdt build/distribution.  The second point;
we've agreed that the gnu tools will be the default implementation for the cdt:
gdb back-end for the debugger, understanding gcc, binutils tools etc ..

So probably having

org.eclipse.cdt.gnu.core
org.eclipse.cdt.gnu.ui

would help and make it more unlikely we refuse new contributions.
