Well, I think that developers are unlikely to drop the development tool they like to use another one even if it's arguably better. MonoDevelop is shaping up to be a great tool and we like it very much. However, we have to make sure that we look beyond MD and provide support to other IDEs and that includes Eclipse.

Hello,
I don't know whether we want to limit intellisense to only working if Eclipse is running inside IKVM, though. A bridge to the CLR from a generic JVM using only JNI but providing the same capabilities as IKVM, compatibly, would be the holy grail ;)


However you could run a process (read mono application) that the C# plugin would communicate with and that would tell it what completions are. This application could be built using some of the engine work in MD (a GUI less MD engine).
Exactly, you would have to design an RPC mechanism and run the code
out-of-proc.
(With regard to your main point, I don't think that anyone would dispute that getting the basic, minimum features working is a higher priority than the advanced flashy ones, but the question originally asked sounded a lot like "what features do you want?". It's unsurprising that the answers focused on advanced features. "I want it to *work*" is kind of implied...)

Well, I wanted to make sure those requirements were clear (C# 1.0, platforms, eclipse version and mono/mcs integration.


Once we get that working, the community is likely to pick it up and improve it (debugger, form designer, automatic ice cream machine)
