OK John,
I agree in principle that we should
support users on the newsgroup as a gesture of goodwill and in the spirit
of Eclipse. I stopped fairly early on because there is a distressing amount
of overlap in the questions we get. There is a limited value in telling
the nth person that Eclipse does not have a compiler, that they need a
makefile, and that their environment is not set-up properly so that's why
they can't build. Further, we post development plans covering the features
we intend to roll out, so answering another of the "will this compiler/library/build
system/make variant" work with Eclipse gets old fast.
I would, however, be willing to dive
back in to the newsgroup if we produced a FAQ that covered off this kind
of background noise and allowed us to concentrate on questions of real
value.
