People who don't care what language the IDE is written in, but want to
develop in a specific language. As a *user*, I couldn't care less what
language an IDE is written in, so long as it does what I want it to do.
If I want to enhance it, add plugins etc, that's a different matter.
How many Eclipse users do you think have written plugins, compared with
those who just write Java code in it?

Why should I have to switch IDEs when I switch languages? I write in
both Java and C# on a daily basis - and I'd rather not have to change
from one IDE to another in order to do so.
Presumably you think the CDT project is silly as well, given your
reasoning?

It is quite simple: In this newsgroup, most people are not only using
Eclipse, but even extending it. So we discuss all sorts of extensions, and
if someone wants to code a C# plug-in, he will definitely want to come
here.
But if you want to code a C# IDE to develop C#, go ahead. If there's the
itch, scratch it. There are good reasons to do so, not the least being
that you'll learn a *lot* about C# programming. Kent Beck says in "TDD"
that whenever he wants to learn a new language, he codes the *unit
framework for it (even when it already exists). I'm sure once you have
some basic functionality going, other people will join you.
But posting to the "eclipse.platform" newsgroup telling people to do
something else, IMHO, a bit pointless. Especially when your only argument
is a "belief" that not everyone shares.

No, I use Eclipse because it is written in a common cross-platform
which makes it available on such wide variety of systems. I wouldn't
mind developing C# applications using Eclipse if it gives all the
tools I need, no matter Eclipse itself is written in Java. Of course
writting an IDE for C# in C# could be easier but that's not the
point of the Eclipse idea - a generic cross-platform environment
extended with the necessary tools where needed.
