First of all hello and welcome to the list and thank you for your
contributions and patches. I think I speak for everyone if I say that
helps a lot.

Indeed, I do. My hope was to package Eclipse 4.x with
maven-debian-helper but if we could reuse your existing patches and
techniques it would probably reduce the maintenance burden even more. So
if XMvn was portable to Debian, it would definitely be helpful even if
it was only for Eclipse.

I will try to get familiar with Tycho within the next days and weeks and
send some feedback to the list.

Regards,

Markus
