Could you let me now through the mailing list when you have released the 
first 2.0 work? I do understand that the 2.0 will be in considerable 
flux, but I think an additional VCM repository plugin will help you 
defining the core API. Probably at some point during my StarTeam 
developments I could be stuck in a specific area, or I could find a 
deficiency in the API. Then again, I'm used to fast changing code at 
work too.

I would also like to not that I have been in contact with a support 
person of StarBase (the makers of StarTeam) and inquired about their 
interest in creating an integration to Eclipse. It seems they are 
investigating the possibility. The support person will find out the 
possibility and the possible time frame. We'll see...
