We have been talking to the maintainers of various Linux distros and are recommending that they do not adopt the Eclipse SDK 4.0 release. Most distros actually contain many Eclipse plug-ins above the base Eclipse platform, and there will be no releases of all those other plug-ins that are developed and tested against the Eclipse SDK 4.0. Look for your favorite Linux distro to incorporate Eclipse SDK 4.x once it is part of a larger Eclipse Foundation simultaneous release and a larger body of third party plug-ins are developed and tested for the 4.0 version of the platform.
