But someone has to keep them in sync with eclipse, testing and committing etc. If they are kept like now, they are adding more confusion and no help I think. It took me hours to find out what was wrong with them and how to fix :) Drop them or maintain. The actual webtools are 3.0.4 already. Maybe for bigger installs we could have an eclipse-plugin-mirror port or something, if you want a server centric install.

You can drop the user-installed plugins directly into /usr/local/eclipse/ with a modicum of effort. You can network mount that directory to avoid updating every machine too. In fact you can even have multiple versions of eclipse installed and run side-by-side with a little effort. I've played with modifications to my /usr/local/bin/eclipse script to do just that. There's absolutely no reason we should have any eclipse-* ports since every one of them is obtainable through eclipse's plugin architecture and software updates screens. It's especially painful if there are multiple supported eclipse versions in the ports tree. I hope that the OP's not suggesting that we create thousands of ports, one for each of Eclipse's 1200+ plugins times each version of Eclipse. Even if he were to volunteer to be the maintainer for each, it seems silly to have the plugins as ports. Although there is some precedence with p5-* ports (instead of using CPAN exclusively). In fact I've had troubles with many of the fbsd ports but all of them seem to behave when I grab them with Eclipse's updater. -- Rick C.

Petty Can't we mark the eclipse-* ports at least as DEPRECATED ? They are confusing new Eclipse users and wasting a lot of time. Most of them haven't got a maintainer and are hopelessly outdated.
