I agree. Although I do like that Adobe is keeping with the Eclipse
framework because this allows me to add the plugin only to my current
Eclipse build and incorporate the functionality and Flex into my
existing projects.

I also use Gentoo has my one-and-only and I have used the Builder plugin
 and SDK for a while now. I have to build everything myself from scratch
and sometimes I have to use the command-line (which really is no big
deal for me, but a usability requirement for others) to compile the
projects (mxmlc).

I all to well understand that companies well not put as much effort into
development for alternative platforms such as GNU/Linux, but the issue I
have is that you are basically breaking away from the Eclipse mindset of
having a cross-platform, integrated development environment by adding
all of the extraneous OS specific code. If this plugin was developed
using existing Eclipse plugin standards from the get go, I think there
would be little issue with getting all of this to run on any platform
which supports Java.

Silverlight requires .Net, Windows, Visual Studio, and a bunch of cash
- -- I only hope Adobe continues on their path of supporting all platforms
as much as possible. This not only means supporting them with Alpha
releases and promises but remembering that this support in the
development stages of the product.

This especially holds true internationally as alternative operating
systems are taking off more so than the US because of cost, privacy, and
economical concerns.

Just my 2p.
