    The subject preety much covers it, but in case I need to ask again, why does ME have pretty much everyone of it’s plugins set to be active on startup?

    Surprised you noticed. It was done to work around a problem in the OSGI runtime and a break in backward compatibility. Without the manual startup, several of our plugins simply weren’t being spun up a all. Doing it this way was the only way to get everything working on M9.

    Will you remove it now that eclipse 3.0 is almost final?

    Ok, but I really don’t want dozens of plugins for app-servers that I will never use. Could you please describe a layering by which we can disable the plugins we don’t use? eg, “What are the minimal plugins for xml editing”.

    We understand and have an open action item to revisit the workaround that we had to put in place for early Milestone support.
