My group was back in the 1980s and 90s ("nyu ultracomputer" still gets a |

We did have industrial contact, chiefly with IBM. |

Indeed it was an enjoyable period of my life. A few years ago, I chose |
| 15 |
to switch my emphasis from research projects to teaching, I enjoy both |
| 16 |
but wanted to spend more time on the latter. |

Thanks. |

It seems like I have the following choices |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
1. Install eclipse-sdk from the main tree. |
| 31 |
I worry since it is masked. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
2. Install a source build from the seden overlay. Garcia recommends |
| 34 |
eclim to permit editing with emacs or vim and hasn't mentioned if it |
| 35 |
works with the seden overlay source. He says it doesn't work with |
| 36 |
the in tree source. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
3. Install a binary build from the java overlay. Garcia believes |
| 39 |
this is compatible with eclim. |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
4. Install a binary build from eclipse.org. This gives the latest |
| 42 |
version. |
