to update these to work with Eclipse 3.1 There are also issues that
could bite us with our not-yet-complete swing implementation in Fedora.
You two should discuss it. It would be great if you could shepherd
these into Fedora Extras!
I've noticed that the procedure you have to follow to check out
source
code from CVS before you can even build a new version of a package,
isn't obvious.
Yeah, it sucks. Ben worked on a proposal to make this much easier:

It may well be the case that the procedure for checking out most
eclipse
features from CVS in the right structure is in fact extremely simple.
However, simple it may be, but it doesn't appear to be documented
anywhere.
Ben sent a message to this mailing list a while back about how to
generate the CDT tarballs:
