Roadmap
The Eclipse Tools Project (Tools) is an open software development project dedicated to developing a wide range of development tools and tools-specific components for the Eclipse Platform. Typically, this would include tools for computer programming languages (compilers, editors), performance tools, debuggers, and test tools. Tools which support the development lifecycle and help developers develop more efficiently are part of this mission. The Tools PMC roadmap is a statement of direction of the technology areas the Tools PMC is interested in.
Remember folks, this is an open source project so the completion of these projects requires contribution to the project. If you want to start a project contact the PMC.
