RE: [cdt-dev] Modifiable AST

Of course! The biggest hurdle to getting contributions into Eclipse projects
is the IP cleanliness of the code. Assuming that it's all original work, I
don't see this as a problem.

You may also want to make sure we're kept informed on what they are doing to
make sure it fits into our architectural plans for the CDT. But assuming
they are following the same pattern for writable ASTs as the JDT is using,
then I have no problem there either.

Great to hear there's progress on this! At EclipseCon, we heard from a
number of people interested in using refactoring in the CDT.
