Re: [geclipse-dev] g-Eclipse Project Set file on g-Eclipse website

[Markus Knauer <mknauer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've done that already some months ago when I was testing new provisioning 
features in Yoxos, but I didn't announce it somewhere and it is outdated (no 
update since 01/2008). E.g. this Yoxos profile includes a link to such a .psf 
file: 
http://ondemand.yoxos.com/geteclipse/start?profile=1121565297_1198321699261895993

The idea is really good, but the problem is that you need to install and 
configure many things before you are able to access the repositories in SVN.
That was my main reason at that time not to announce it somewhere.

One of my todos on my long list is an updated of our eclipse.org webpages. 
Maybe I'll include such a project set file and add a (long) description on 
how to use it.
