That's incredibly great news! I can't wait to get my fingers on it :-)

You don't need to build everything. Only what you need. Especially compiling 
all the tests takes a long time. There is a e.g. a way to build only what's 
necessary for TAO (The ACE ORB).

P.S.
Keep in touch with the DOC group about your work. They might start using 
Eclipse for their development if it woks well with ACE+TAO.
