Sounds good Vincent. I'll make sure we get back in touch when WTP has something concrete to show the Cactus community.

Personally I'm entirely fine with having the Cactus Eclipse integration happen in Eclipse land. If anyone has any objection please shout. I think it's even better for the Cactus project as it'll get more exposure. > Is Cactus OK with discarding the work done on Eclipse integration or > investigating a way to donate it to Eclipse? If so, can you specify on the > Cactus website that WTP provides Cactus integration for Eclipse? I guess this all depends on Daniel. If Daniel thinks there's some useful code in there then I'm sure we can arrange a donation. Let us know first if that's something you're interesting in. If not, then I'm also happy to remove the Eclipse code from the Cactus trunk and only advertise the Eclipse work you guys are doing. AFAIR there are only 2 people who have done work on the Eclipse integration code (Julien and me - And Julien is working has not participated for the past 3 years. I'm sure he'd agree to anything) so it should pretty easy to get any agreement we want. Once again this is only my opinion. If someone has something to say on this topic please speak up. Thanks -Vincent
