Has there been any discussion of hosting a CDT tools/extensions project
alongside the CDT core on eclipse.org?  This would keep the current CDT
mandate of a generic framework approach in the core, while creating an
organized, open community around CDT tools/extensions development.  Of
course, Red Hat's contributions would form the base of such a project on
the Linux side of things.

Yeah, this is an important point.  I'm interested in hearing the
opinions of more committers on this.

Again, we'd really like to see these plug-ins hosted with the CDT on
eclipse.org.
