(Normally, we use SlickEdit, which has an easy way to to integrate any command line version control system.) I noted that Excplipse does have an External Tools feature (at least in the C/C++ perspective). I did not try it, but perhaps that would be a way to partially integrate Fossil into Eclipse. Probably, one of the Mercurial, Git or CVS plug-ins could be adapted for use as a Fossil plug-in for Eclipse. I have heard of a few attempts to create non-web based GUIs for Fossil.Maybe one of those would fit your team's needs, even if it would not be integrated with your DE.
