Donald Woods commented on GERONIMODEVTOOLS-511:
-----------------------------------------------

Have you looked at the latest test builds of GEP 2.1.3?  Ted has reduced and 
merged the number of plugins down to one, so your argument about too many 
plugins has been resolved.

I still would rather not provide a GEP + Eclipse bundle, as all it would be is 
the Europa JEE package + our deployable zip.  Until I start seeing a large 
number of GEP users asking for a "Geronimo Studio" bundle, I still feel like we 
would be wasting our time building, testing and supporting such a bundle across 
at least Windows, Linux and Mac systems to cover the platforms that Geronimo 
developers are using today.

> Please provide a zip / tar.gz download of Geronimo Eclipse Plugin complete 
> with all requisites, inclusive a stripped-down Eclipse itself.
> The zip should not contain eclipse as root folder but rather eclipseGeronimo 
> to not overwrite the default Eclipse installation.
> The download options described in 
> http://geronimo.apache.org/development-tools.html
> require that WTP and some more are installed. Installing WTP is error-prone, 
> as it has lots of dependencies you need in the right version. 
> Installing via Eclipse-Help-Software Updates does not work either as the 
> Update manager is not smart enough to install requisites:
> Geronimo v1.0 Server Adapter (2.0.0) requires feature "org.eclipse.jst 
> (2.0.0)", or compatible
> The given ant script does not work behind our firewall, and I am not keen on 
> figuring out how the firewall options of ant work.
