Yeah, that's about right. The biggest feature I think it's missing is
the ability to directly import from a git repo. Without this feature,
it's awkward to get started with projects hosted with git.

As far as the packaging goes, it's a fairly straight forward Eclipse
package. The only reason I orphaned it is because I'm going to have
limited access to the internet for the next 6 months and won't have time
to keep it updated.
