<h2 id="the-project">The project</h2>
<p>The <strong>GNU ARM Eclipse plug-in</strong> project was registered on <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnuarmeclipse/">SourceForge</a> in November 2006, and initially included an XML only plug-in definition; although functional, it was somehow limited.</p>
<h3 id="first-edition">First edition</h3>
<p>The first fully functional edition of the plug-in (version 0.5.3) was announced in March 2009, when the plug-in was practically recreated, functionality was extended and more toolchains were supported. The Eclipse specifics, like adding a feature project and an update site project were also added.</p>
<h3 id="second-edition">Second Edition</h3>
<p>In September 2013, based on the Eclipse CDT and the new developments in ARM Toolchains, work on the second edition of the plug-in started, involving a major rewrite, inspired by the CDT Cross Compile plug-in.</p>
<p>In December 2013, new plug-ins were added to the project: the <strong>STM32Fx templates</strong> and an experimental version of the SEGGER J-Link hardware debugging plug-in.</p>
<p>At the same time, since the project is no longer about a single plug-in, but a family of plug-ins, the SourceForge project name was changed to plural: <strong>GNU ARM Eclipse plug-ins</strong>.</p>
<p>In February 2014, the version 2.x of the plug-ins family was published, bringing official debugging support, via <strong>SEGGER J-Link</strong> and <strong>OpenOCD</strong>. Templates for Freescale were also added.</p>
<p>In July 2014, the experimental version of the Packs plug-in was published, providing management support (list/install/uninstall/outline) for CMSIS Packs.</p>
<h3 id="migration-to-github">Migration to GitHub</h3>
<p>In August 2015 the project was migrated to <a href="https://github.com/gnuarmeclipse">GitHub</a> and restructured as separate sub-projects. For a more stability over time, the blog and wiki sites hosted on the private livius.net server were migrate to the public GitHub Pages.</p>
<p>With this migration also the name was reduced to <strong>GNU ARM Eclipse</strong>.</p>
<h2 id="pad-file">PAD file</h2>
<p>The project <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_Application_Description">PAD file</a> is publically available <a href="https://github.com/gnuarmeclipse/plug-ins/blob/develop/info/GNU_ARM_Eclipse_pad.xml">here</a>.</p>
<p>Note: the current limitation of 120 characters for URLs prevents the GitHub release URLs to be published in PAD files.</p>
<h2 id="credits">Credits</h2>
<p>Many thanks to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Wilfried Holzke who created this project and maintained versions prior to 0.5.3;</li>
<li>my good friend Dan Maiorescu, for his invaluable support during the design, development and testing of the plug-ins.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="this-site">This site</h2>
<p>The first project wiki was created in August 2008 using the SourceForge hosted apps.</p>
<p>In early 2012, the Project Web was redesigned and the developer pages were moved from the SourceForge hosted apps to the Project web, as a MediaWiki site.</p>
<p>Unfortunately SourceForge introduced the policy of blocking outgoing traffic from the Project web pages, and managing WordPress and MediaWiki sites on SourceForge servers became unpractical.</p>
<p>In October 2013, the project documentation was moved to an external <a href="http://wordpress.org/">WordPress</a> site, and was intended to improve communication with users by keeping them informed about current issues and releases. The original URL was http://gnuarmeclipse.livius.net/blog.</p>
<p>The developer specific pages were also moved to an external MediaWiki site. The original URL was http://gnuarmeclipse.livius.net/wiki.</p>
<p>In Aug 2015 those two sites were first migrated to GitHub Wiki, with content split between multiple projects. Then the entire project pages was migrated to a GitHub Pages site, located at <a href="http://gnuarmeclipse.github.io/">http://gnuarmeclipse.github.io/</a>.</p>
<h2 id="the-author">The author</h2>
<p>This plug-in is currently maintained by <strong>Liviu Ionescu</strong>, a senior IT engineer, with expertise in operating systems, compilers, embedded systems and Internet technologies.</p>
