I was/am in the same boat as you, Alec. I would second Doug's advice about Lars' tutorials. Starting plugin development is daunting, but Lar's tutorials got me started.

Depends on how much Eclipse plugin knowledge you have, you should also search for the great tutorials by Lars Vogel. Highly recommended.

Hey guys,
I use the CDT plugin daily and I'd actually quite like to make some changes, and also contribute them back, however I've never played with Eclipse Plugins before.
II am an able programmer, I use version control (I know saying that like it's a credential doesn't help my case :p) I can program, blah blah blah, I've just never touched Eclipse Plugins before.
Are there any getting started guides? Also any documentation for CDT about it's internal structure, a log of why things are the way they are? So forth?
Alec
