[Pluginbuilder-development] Future of Pluginbuilder

[Markus B. <Mar...@gm...>]

I have created this list to discuss the development of Pluginbuilder.
In particular the project has reached a point where the future
direction of Pluginbuilder is not clear to me and I would be glad to
receive some feedback from the people who have tried or used
pluginbuilder so far. I have already added some feature requests
(https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=188226&atid=924464) which
would improve Pluginbuilder from my point of view.

I would like people to comment on the existing requests or add new
requests. They will be a base for the decision if/how to proceed with
Pluginbuilder.

I would also like to pose the following questions:
1) Do Buckminster and Pluginbuilder overlap? Should further efforts be
invested into Buckminster instead of Pluginbuilder?
2) Is there still need to add some of pluginbuilder's functionality
into PDE? There was an attempt to add Pluginbuilder as PDE Incubator
project but there was not much interest, see
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=205384

cheers
