Description Brian de Alwis

Just fielded a question on IRC from a newcomer to the Eclipse world looking for the SDK Examples Plug-ins.  They're surprisingly difficult to find since most download pages now funnel to the EPP download page (www.eclipse.org/downloads)  — you need to get to the http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/ and then navigate to the appropriate page.

I'd suggest:
  (1) adding the org.eclipse.sdk.examples feature to "Eclipse for RCP and RAP developers" 
  (2) adding the org.eclipse.sdk.examples feature to the Indigo p2 repository
  (3) adding a link to the "Related Links" section of the EPP downloads page

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.

Moving to EPP where package contents are managed.
