Eclipse plugins ports?

[Greg Lewis]

G'day all,

I'm looking into a problem with one of the Eclipse plugin ports and I have
to say that I wonder why we bother having plugin ports.  Eclipse has good
built in plugin management tools, so the only reason I can see for having
a port for one is if there is some code that needs changes (and the only
one of those I see is eclipse-cdt).

What are peoples thoughts on this?  Who feels they get a lot of value out
of having FreeBSD ports for those plugins that we do have and why?
