To participate in the Galileo coordinated release, each project is asked to define activities so that UI contributions can be hidden by adopters of the Eclipse IDE. The Eclipse SDK is looking good, but we identified some missing pieces. This bug is about the Ant UI contributions which should appear under the top-level "Development" category in the Capabilities preference page but currently don't. Open the preferences dialog, drill down to General > Capabilities, and click on "Advanced...". You will see "Java Development" and "Plug-in Development" under "Development". "Ant" (or some better name) should be a sibling of these two. Let me know if you need any help - the change needs to go into org.eclipse.sdk/plugin.xml, which is owned by Releng, but Ant should come up with the correct activityPatternBinding that refers to the Ant UI contributions. I'd suggest you create a patch and then move this bug over to Releng.
