Hi McClain,

I have been using subclipse with Eclipse 3.0 for a while, though it is
not perfect but it sure gets the most of the thing done. Thanks for the
great plugin :) I can understand the complexity involve in developing
subclipse when you need to tackle the eclipse platform apis, the
implementing of a subversion client and also take care of the
challenges introduced by other plugins e.g. Refactor .

I have a question which may have been asked before, i wonder why
subclipse chose to implement as a subversion client from ground up and
not as a facade to a pre-installed command line subversion client ?

Thanks once again for the great plugin.

Regards.
