Re: [eclipse-pmc] Request for splitting out a PDE spy into a separate bu

[Lars Vogel <lars.vogel@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Because it is a tool for plug-in and RCP development. I prefer to have
such tools in PDE which IMHO is the logical place for them.

Also the PMC approved a while ago to move the e4 spies to PDE and it
think this spies will fit well into them. (Note: the move has never
started due to capacity issues on the e4 side, but is still planned).

Best regards, Lars
