Hi,
Thanks for providing Kepler port! I am using 9.2-STABLE and install a lot
of Kepler packages and JBoss tools 4.1, it works great!

I found that:

1. add
"-Dorg.eclipse.equinox.p2.reconciler.dropins.directory=3D/usr/local/share/e=
clipse/dropins"
into eclipse.ini works as usual.

2. openjdk6 is more stable than openjdk7 when running Kepler for me.

3. If provide Kepler WindowBuilder package for FreeBSD also, that would be
awesome!
