Thank you for your answer. However, I have realised that the binary plugins I have are NOT under the EPL. I've been looking into this a little bit more in detail, and have come to the following conclusions: The eclipse plugins (0.8.0.v200809220836) downloadable from the update site https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/ are distributed under the Android Software Development Kit License Agreement. According to 3.3 in that agreement we are not allowed to redistribute the plugins in our own eclipse distribution. If we would take the source code of the plugins in git (0.8.1 or 0.9.0 work in progress) we could build the plugins ourselves and distribute it under EPL and Apache 2 accordingly. To build them ourselves appears to us as an unnecessary step which we would like to avoid. If possible we would like to take the prebuilt binaries and include them in our distribution. However, it appears that we would need Google's written permission in order to do that. Could someone from Google comment on that?
