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.
