Thanks Tom. I've managed to find the plugin as you suggested, I just seemed to end up at the wrong sourceforge site to start with.
I'm assuming this list gets archived, so for the benefit of others who end up at http://argo2ecore.sourceforge.net/, you actually need to go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/argo2ecore and then download the plugin. It's just a jar file that goes in the eclipse plugins directory. Thanks again, Lionel.
