I would like to see a complete upgrade. I do realize we need to upgrade all ports as well, or set them BROKEN. Problem is that many ports don't have a maintainer, or has the freebsd-eclipse mailing list as maintainer, which is basically the same thing. :( Still, most plugins will probably be rather easy to upgrade, no? It should be a community effort, of course. Regards, Palle
