Alexandros,
Thanks! Sorry for not finding time sooner to review this. It looks
great to me! It doesn't matter which OS the screen shots come from,
though consistency is nice so the way you've redone them all is
excellent. I think this should replace the old one. Feel free to over
write the contents of the old one.
BTW, I understand that folks are actually working on a design to address
109137 <https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=109137>! This
will solve the problem direct for most folks and for our team with our
need to bootstrap, i.e., use a development modified generator to
regenerate our own code, we should be able to omit the step of jarring
the plugins as well as the hack of specifying a jar instead of "." in
the MANIFEST.MF which is later turned into a "." by the build by running
the main Eclipse with a -dev argument that points at the same properties
file that PDE uses to launch the runtime workspace. Well simply be
able to exit Eclipse and start it up again to pick up the bootstrapped
changes in the main Eclipse itself.

Alexandros,
I'm not sure either. I've added Nick to the CC list since he likely
knows how.

Pages [1] and [2] now redirect to [3]. The Category page [4] only lists
the single page now.
[1] http://wiki.eclipse.org/EMF/Getting_Source
[2] http://wiki.eclipse.org/EMF/Getting_Source_New
[3] http://wiki.eclipse.org/EMF/Setting_up_a_development_environ ment
[4] http://wiki.eclipse.org/Category:EMF
In future, you can avoid this mess by simply editing an existing page in
place, rather than creating a new clone.
That said, if you ever need to redirect a page, just replace that page's
entire contents with:
#REDIRECT [[some_wiki_page]]
eg.,
#REDIRECT [[EMF/Setting_up_a_development_environment]]
Cheers,
Nick
