I would suggest keeping it in “Standard” as long as the Eclipse Orbit project still uses CVS.
“Standard” should continue being the one-stop-shop for self-hosted development of Eclipse Plugins.
The CVS adapter is really small enough to not cause any harm IMHO.
Moving it out of the other packages, and offering CVS on the Marketplace instead, is a good idea.
Marketplace Statistics will also give some idea how many people still want it.
Thanks,
Martin

yes! let’s get rid of this dinosaur!
Hi all,
Now that CVS is only used by 3.7% of people according to latest Eclipse survey, wouldn't it make sense to kick it out of default Eclipse packages to avoid showing the useless CVS entries (in show view or import for example) to the remaining 96.3% of Eclipse
users? Instead, we could think of providing CVS on marketplace.
What do you think about it?
