Sorry... let me correct that.
Years of selfless dedication to the Eclipse community is the first
step. Contribution to the EPP project would be the next step.

The PDT leads were the ones responsible for previous packages.
They've opted out.
Want to be a committer? Contribute a package definition to EPP.
Contribution is the first step :-)

FWIW, any committer can create a package. Just sayin'
If *I* were a committer, I'd consider it ;-)
Has anyone reached out to the PDT lead(s) to see if they would
do it?

Yeah, what Wayne said. :-)
I'd be willing to help by doing a screencast of how to get
PDT into the other packages; I got a lot of positive
feedback when I did something similar for Galileo.
Question: is PDT included in the Indigo release repository?
Or is it's own repo included in the list of repos that is
shipped with any of the packages? In other words, will users
have to manually find and add the PDT repo location in order
to get it?

Eric answers more 'newcomer' questions than
anybody. Experience indicates that the missing package
will inevitably result in dozens (or perhaps hundreds) of
'where is the PHP package?' types of questions. That
relatively small number of questions will just represent
the tip of the iceberg with regard to confused users.
Better to cut that off at the source if we can.
It'd be good to include a few words and/or pointer to help
people understand that they can add PHP support to any of
the packages via the "Install new software..." menu.
And... as Doug suggests, we're talking about PDT, not PTP.
:-)
HTH,

I agree, Denis. If it just disappears without any info
about why or alternative ways of getting PDT, the user
community will be confused and revolt.
OK, maybe not revolt, but let's be proactive about
explaining the situation.

I can't help but feel that a bunch of people will be
coming to our download page looking for the PHP
package, not find it, then turn to
[forums|email|IRC|twitter|frustration] to try to find
it.
Since it was such a prolific package, can't we have a
notice saying it doesn't exist anymore? Something?
Anything?

Good Morning devs,
I've updated the indigo version of the compare
packages table >>
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/compare_indigo.php
I'm looking to get +1's from each of the package
maintainers on this table before we release next
week.
Couple of notes:
The links for the actual packages are broken, thats
ok right now.
The links for the projects should work.
I cloned the CVS row for eGit out of support for the
eGit team =)
Thanks,
