Do we really need to have yet another discussion on what is the correct package? It would be really nice if someone could point to a bug where someone expressed confusion with the current packaging strategy.
As for the name ‘Eclipse IDE for Eclipse Developers’ can someone please explain what is an Eclipse developer? The vast majority of people that visit our web site are Java developers.

As an Eclipse developer I want things like m2e available.
Doug, please open bugs for this. There is already one open to add Mylyn with Bugzilla, Gerrit and Hudson integration. Maven integration should be in there too.
“Eclipse IDE for Plugin Developers” and get rid of special placement “above the fold”?
I like "Eclipse IDE for Eclipse Developers" better. The package should include everything you need for developing Eclipse. However, I do think that’s an important signal that our top-offered package is the one for extending the Eclipse IDE. It’s shameless self-promotion but a really important driver (IMHO).
