Jeff, and I are both working from Toronto so it's a possibility. We could
also have some video conference to get Xavier in as well. If there's some
specific features you'd like to see, you could file a bug [1] for this as
we're always looking to improve the tooling.

In terms of future plans, I think Docker Machine support is coming up, a
better Dockerfile editor than the plain textbox (from building the image),
better support for multiple registries (integrated into Eclipse Preferences),
and maybe using Terminal.tm instead of the Eclipse console when a container
is meant to act as a shell.

Also, integrating the tooling with other Eclipse language environments seems
interesting. Jeff wrote a plugin that allows one to launch/debug a C/C++
project in a container. This ships as part of the CDT, and such integration
might be nice to do for even the JDT.
