The plan is for the core to *always* be usable as a standalone, command-line tool. If we can make the command-line tool into a headless Eclipse executable, and we can keep the performance of that in the same range as the current command line, and we can provide a way of compiling it from the command-line, then we might switch to a pure plugin based model. But since that involves three major steps, none of which are completely supported by Eclipse, that's something that we can't even consider right now. So, for the indefinite future, the core will remain Eclipse free. But most of the extension components that Jim and I will be working on will be Eclipse specific. (I think Dave is going to be working on core extensions that don't use Eclipse.) -Mark -- Mark Craig Chu-Carroll, IBM T.J.
