I think one reason is to make sure the latest plugin (which requires a particular version of eclipse + WTP) supports different major releases of geronimo in case people still want to use the older version or while they migrate their projects from older versions of geronimo to the newer versions.

Also, yesterday I could not find documentation where to checkout/look
at the source code of the plugin. The build page appeared to be empty.

On a related note, once I checked out the code from svn and started
building the plugin, it started downloading Geronimo 1.1 and 1.2 bits.
So I was wondering what is the reason for the plugin to support all
previous versions of Geronimo?. Why not have a plugin that's specific
to a particular version of Geronimo? For example, plugin 2.0.x
supports and works only with G 2.0.x.

Can someone put updated doc for developing the geronimo eclipse and
J2G plugins in the wiki, and link to them from the devtools home page?

http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC11/geronimo-eclipse-plugin-faq.html has
doc for the 1.x plugin.  There is a link to a blank page for the
eclipse plugin from the devtools page, but no similar link for j2g.

This would be helpful.  I tried to find that blank page for the
eclipse plugin in the wiki to update it, but was unsuccessful.  What
is the URL for the wiki page to
http://geronimo.apache.org/developing-the-geronimo-eclipse-plugin-in-eclipse.html
?  Or, is this not a page that is generally accessible?

Thanks,
Ted Kirby
