Description Andrew Overholt CLA 2011-03-30 11:41:19 EDT 
We've discussed moving to Maven Tycho as our build technology:

http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/linuxtools-dev/msg00783.html

There were no objections and it simplifies a lot of things for us:

- it allows for local builds (this is the biggest advantage IMO)
- it allows easier integration with tools like FindBugs, etc.
- it brings us in line with a growing number of Eclipse projects

Working on squashing my commits.

The Tycho changes have landed in master.  Locally the build works for me but on eclipse.org there appear to be a few issues.  I'm going to look at these and track them via bug #337509.
