Not a problem; I normally try to spend few hours during weekends, so big
commits will take some time from my side as well.

Please explain more on what you mean by "*Eclipse Java code template
mechanism"*. Some of the eclipse core uses the mechanism I used and some
uses JET templates. Are you looking forward to have JET templates ? I
thought JET templates are over-kill, because we have very few things to
replace.

For dependent jars like Oracle drivers as you pointed out, will there be a
lib directory under /java/main/ ? If I need to use a temp directory, I plan
to create it in the workspace itself and then delete it.
