Plugins that work in 2.1 don't seem to work in 3.0. Is there a secret?

These are really plugin specific...I ran into the same problem with a
plugin called EclipseColorer...The developer had a patch available
(reaplacing the <requires> segment of the plugin.xml) that corrected the
problems...

Thing is, if the developer for the plugin you wish to use hasn't updated
that plugin for 3.0...You really only have two choices...
1. Try and correct it yourself if you have the plugin source code.
2. Stay at 2.1

Our goal is that they do work. The porting guide outlines the problem areas.
If you are finding problems with things not mentioned in the porting guide,
please enter bug reports against the relevant component. We need to know
about this stuff NOW!

Thanks
