Anithra has asked that the sub-project retain the name "SystemTapGui".
I think this is fine but the code has been re-namespaced to
org.eclipse.linuxtools.systemtapgui.  I'd _sort of_ like to keep it
consistent with the other projects and have it be something like:

org.eclipse.linuxtools.systemtap.core
org.eclipse.linuxtools.systemtap.logging
org.eclipse.linuxtools.systemtap.ui
org.eclipse.linuxtools.systemtap.ui.editor
org.eclipse.linuxtools.systemtap.ui.graphing
org.eclipse.linuxtools.systemtap.ui.ide
...

What does everyone think?

This sounds great.  Please file bugs as you see fit.  I think we're
better off scheduling bugs -- with target milestone -- one release at a
time and leaving the rest set to "---".  Also, feel free to update
plan.xml in the "linuxtools" website CVS repository [1].

One other thing to keep in mind is that the other tracing stuff will be
coming in the next little while.  I'd love to hear the thoughts of
Pierre-Marc, Francois, Marc, et al on how we can have a consistent user
experience with multiple backends.  At least for the common parts.

Looking forward to some good stuff,

Andrew
