I'm working on some plug-in examples from several books and they refer
to a "Default Plug-In Structure" wizard available (in with the Custom
plug-in wizard and the Hello, World, etc) from the Plug-in code
generator page (new Plug-in Project). Has this been dropped in 3.0 (or
is there a problem with my installation)? Thanks.

Chris, thanks for that insight!
For anyone else who may be creating a plug-in using the Plug-In
Development Environment (PDE) and using a 2.x book (ie, "the Java
Developer's Guide To Eclipse", The O'Reilly books (including those that
claim to cover 3.0) for instruction:
The "Hello World" plugin "from scratch" examples describe a
dialog titled "New Plug-in Project" and a heading of "Plug-in Code
Generators". You are instructed to select "Create a plug-in project
using a code generation wizard", and then from the enabled list box
select "Default Plug-In Structure". This appears to be analogous to NOT
selecting "Create a plug-in using one of the templates" in the dialog by
the same name (but a heading of "Templates") - instead just use the
finish button. This will result in the generation of a (skeleton)
plug-in manifest (plugin.xml) and a plug-in top level Java class.
