1. Create java project
2. Edit .project so as to remove the java nature
Observe: The project is now a simple project but it still has its .classpath 
file.

Symmetrically if you add the java nature to a project by editing its .project, 
a .classpath file is not created.

As of now 'LATER' and 'REMIND' resolutions are no longer supported.
Please reopen this bug if it is still valid for you.
