[cross-project-issues-dev] Platform (SWT) planning to remove Windows CE

[David M Williams <david_williams@xxxxxxxxxx>]

In the interest of full, open disclosure,
we plan to no longer provide the Windows CE (ARM PocketPC) SWT jar, even
in Juno SR2, not only removed from Kepler. 

The reason is straightforward; we've
recently discovered (thanks to Markus Keller's close look) that the jar
has been completely broken since moving our build to build.eclipse.org,
even for Juno's initial release. This implies no one at all is using it,
and looking at the download stats for previously releases, it appears downloads
even then were probably at the curiosity level. 

Of course, if we are missing something,
we'd reconsider, but someone will need to speak up soon on bug 388091.
