Eclipse is an open source platform with many vendors behind it. IBM started this initiative in response to take on SUN in IDE market and compete with their offerings in this space now known as Netbeans. Its name came from Lunar Eclipse (hint: think of what happens to Sun during Lunar Eclipse).

What happens during a lunar eclipse? The moon falls into the Earth's shadow, causing it to turn dark red. So where was that hint supposed to lead me?
Or were you really thinking of a solar eclipse (when the Sun is blocked by the moon), and repeating the accusation that Sun Microsystems has made that IBM was taking a shot at their name (which I believe IBM has pretty consistently denied).

That set aside, as far as top ten lists go this seems to be pretty useless. You don't go into any details on any of the plugins (or even give links), you just gives a list of what you think are popular plugins (and of course a quick visit to the eclipse homepage could easily give you a much better list).

Yes from next time i will start adding more meat to it to give more insights on content..., I normally do if you look at other posts.
I think this was a lazy post on my behalf.
