Re: [tools-pmc] Eclipse Corrosion: the Eclipse IDE for Rust 2026.06 Progress Review
Hello, 

Apologies, I forgot to include the PMC as part of the Project members reaching out. Here are their inputs:

From Mickael: 
I don't plan to contribute further myself but would be pleased to see Corrosion kept alive as it is IMO very viable and can provide an excellent value/investment ratio.
It's a pretty stable project with low maintenance demand. The fact that the underlying language server can update itself and that most features are provided by LSP4E and CDT makes that the experience gets better without even rebuilding it.
From Alexander:
Same for me. I've been thinking that it would not need its JIPP but rather have snapshots written by GHA.

 From Nicola:
If the project is kept alive and circumstances changed, I wouldn't rule out contributing again in the future.

Said that, I believe that support for Rust in Eclipse is not to the point at which it can be used for professional development at the level offered by free and commercial competitors.

Hi EMO,

I am not sure that the Corrosion project is still active. AFAICT there hasn't been a commit in 7 months and little to no activity on the GitHub issues and PRs. The CI for corrosion was shutdown 5 months ago due to lack of response, see https://gitlab.eclipse.org/eclipsefdn/helpdesk/-/issues/7001

In addition, there was discussion about adding Eclipse Corrosion to Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers and the conclusion was "supporting Rust sounds like a good idea, when we get an owner to support ongoing Rust work we should revisit again"

Can you reach out to the project team so they can share their intentions?

Thanks
Jonah
