This has always been viewed to be the contributing project's decision. 
(Which ... is true in general ... some projects do not contribute ALL 
their features to common repo; such as perhaps not examples, perhaps not 
some of the rarer functions, etc.). I know for WTP, it was thought best to 
minimize download (so no source ... last I knew), since it was intended 
for people developing web apps ... not for people developing plugins for 
WTP. 

Hope that answers what you were asking.

Subject:        [cross-project-issues-dev] Source code in simrel aggregate 
repo
Sent by:        cross-project-issues-dev-boun...@eclipse.org



As part of working on the definition for Eclipse Ultimate Edition, I have 
discovered that a number of prominent projects do not contribute source to 
the simrel repo. Before I start opening bugs, is there prior context or 
discussion on whether or not source code should be in the simrel repo? 
Note that I am not asking whether source code should be in a particular 
package as that’s dependent on the user that the package is targeting.
 
Thanks,
