the eclipse error reporting prototype is hosted in recommenders main git 
repository at the moment. See [1] for instructions how to setup the project 
with Oomph. there is no additional documentation atm.

Yes. the server url is stored as preference and may be changed by, e.g., 
plugin_customization.ini


Best,
Marcel
