RE: [cdt-debug-dev] CDT, RCP & my intentions

Thanks Øyvind,

Standalone CDT debugging is something I'd like to see happen with CDT 3.1
which is tentatively scheduled to release at the same time as Eclipse 3.2. I
think your work combined with Ken and the Nokia team's work will get us
there. We'll just have to co-ordinate to make sure any overlap is worked out
and get any patches committed for you.

Cheers,
Doug
