The rule used to be that we use the simple name ("eclipse") for the default version of any port, usually the latest release version. That should be 4.3 (Kepler), if/when people are happy with it. Remember that this is the name you use when you install packages or use a tool like portmaster to build. It should be simple, and get more specific if you want something different than the default. I would like to keep the latest version of Eclipse 3.x, e. g. for 3rd party plugins ("eclipse3"). I wouldn't like to keep 4.2, under any name. If we wanted to, though, we should follow the other examples in the portstree and use version numbers ("eclipse42"), not names. Who wants to remember which version maps to which name two years from now? We used eclipse-devel basically to shake out problems with new versions (4.2 being the latest), while still providing a working default. That port can either go or be IGNOREd; I don't really have a preference here. tg
