Re: [m2e-dev] m2e Connectors and dependence on plugin

[Rafał Krzewski <Rafal.Krzewski@xxxxxxxxx>]

Igor,
I was looking into web application development using OSGi tools (Eclipse 
Virgo, Gemini, Libra etc) and m-b-p / Tycho / PDE integration is very 
relevant in this context.
Is this documented somewhere? Which list / forum is appropriate place to 
ask questions about it?

Thanks,
Rafał
