Hey,

Sorry I've been quiet for a long time... I've been the primary maintainer
for SWTBot for some time, and I'm not following up on any eclipse
development or working with eclipse anymore (I'm enjoying too much of
playing the emacs chords :)

As such I've completely lost track of eclipse -- the last version I used
was 3.7. I'm happy to nominate another committer to take SWTBot forward. I
believe Mickael has been someone who's contributed substantially to SWTBot
and understands the innards of eclipse. I would like to step aside and
propose that he takes SWTBot.

Thoughts?
